I've recently heard, that SIM cards can be read with contactless Smart Card readers. That means that if I happen to put my cellphone on or near the Reader, the data on my SIM Card can be read?!?!?
Is this really possible?

Hi everyone!
I've recently heard, that SIM cards can be read with contactless Smart Card readers. That means that if I happen to put my cellphone on or near the Reader, the data on my SIM Card can be read?!?!?
Is this really possible?

It would also not affect my SIM card in any way?
