One day, maybe we’ll settle on one or two.
- “Blink lunch in a flash” (Chase Blink)
- “Place Speedpass Here” (Mobil SpeedPass)
- “Tap N Go” (MasterCard PayPass)
- “Hold Your Card” (we made that up at Zipcar, but many people use it today)
- “Touch in and out” (London Transport’s Oyster Card)
- “Tap your card on the card target” (MBTA CharlieCard)
- “Wave your card in front of the reader” (massport Parking Passport)
- “scan your card” / “swipe your card” - obsolete, refers to older technologies, but these are sometimes used when people talk about RFID theft: Slashdot, Reddit, Japan Today

How about:
I would come up with something witty for e-passport data theft but I’m drawing a blank.

The folks at SparkFunElectronics dissected a Nike+iPOD foot sensor and have some interesting remarks about using its unique 2.4GHZ band signal as an alternative or supplement to RFID tags; for instance, unlike RFID, the foot sensor is not a passive device and its signal has a range of 30-40+ feet. Interesting.
