> Can an eel skin wallet erase all the magnetic information on your credit cards if the skin came from an electric eel?

Not exactly.

Eel skin wallets did cause a major upheval in the credit card industry.
Of course the problem was not the Eel skin itself, but the MAGNETIC closures they used.

Just call me an expert witness on this one.
