Credit card question

We just received an E-mail from American Express stating we would be getting new cards with CHIP TECHNOLOGY. They say it increases security.
A few months ago I remember seeing a report on TV about crooks using available technology being able to read the chips with the card in your pocket or purse and you have no clue that it happened. The report said to wrap your cards in foil or keep them in a metal container. I don't think so.
Anyone know anything good or bad about these chips in the credit cards.

Thanks PaulM
