Galaxy Smart Tag plus sets off shop security!!

Hi,

Has anyone else had the Smart Tag plus set off the security in different shops?

If I've got it in my pocket and walk through the scanners at the entrance to shops, it sometimes (More often than not) set off the alarms!!

I contacted Samsung and apart fro resetting it they couldn't offer anything else and said to get a replacement from Amazon!

I think this is happening to me also - four new smart tags, one (but only one) of which seems to set off alarms. Seems like a pretty major flaw in the system...
