RDIF Security Bags/Wallets
I have been reading up on electronic information from credit cards, information from tablets/laptops and passports being scanned by thieves. I am wondering if this has ever happened to anyone and if I should take precautions and purchase a shoulder bag that is RDIF so that this scanning cannot happen.

The Pacsafe brand of bags for both men and women contain a number of anti theft technologies including RFID protection.
If you find something you like, google it to find the cheapest price online. REI stores also carry a line of Pacsafe bags in their stores.

While this is a very small risk in reality, it is not hard to defend against. Foil as suggested will do the job. Just take a piece of ordinary kitchen foil and fold up a couple of layers to place inside the back of your wallet. That is enough to stop scanners.
