Bank card lost - wrong PIN helps

It is very annoying if you lose your bank card or it was even stolen. Unfortunately, it has often happened that you have noticed it too late and in the meantime, strangers have already made various purchases.

Now I've written a 4-digit fictitious PIN number on a very small sticker and stuck this sticker on the back of the card. Would now find one of my card with PIN number, what would he do? Of course, go straight to the bank and try your best. Finally he would think how stupid you are and stick your own PIN on the card. After 3 attempts with the wrong PIN, the bank automatically pulls the card in, then it is safe and can not be used by strangers anymore.
