An electrically conductive band for an RFID tag having an RFID tag enclosure, an electrical continuity contact within a loop on an end of the electrically conductive band, an electrically conductive landing area on a tongue of the band, the tongue being insertable through the loop to secure the band around a body to be monitored by an RFID system, the tongue thereby engaging a portion of the electrically conductive landing area with the electrical continuity contact. The electrically conductive landing area has a series of electrical continuity dimples in each of which there is an electrical contact to an electrical pathway around the electrically conductive band. The RFID tag which transmits an alarm to the monitoring agency whenever the band has been tampered with, severed, or otherwise circumvented.
