The enthusiasm of getting a hot Coral Card

Im still a bit surprised to see people posting pictures of their Cards on the Monzo twitter website while on holiday , out drinking , etc etc showing most of their card numbers - hopefully everybody is aware that the first 8 numbers on the long number across the card are the same on every card , so covering these first 8 numbers up is pointless - also surprised that the people vetting the tweets at Monzo aren’t picking this up and posting the guilty tweet

James / Tristan from Monzo have said that they keep an eye out for these posts too. But a warning in the welcome pack too might help.
