Well I too wouldnt want my personal details (ie Credit Card details) stored for other people to access!
Dont know if you all heard about the Credit Card scam that the Russian Mafia were 'apparently' operating! They accessed card details from a company in Arizona, and it affected people who had used their card in the US to shop, or people who had used their card to pay bills or purchase things over the phone, and also people who had used their credit card over the internet for any reason at all. Only those cards which the details went to the US. It affected 130 000 people here in Australia alone, and up to 40 million people world wide! It was reported yesterday on our (Australia's) news programs.
Well my bank manager phoned me yesterday to inform me my card was one those hit!!
So to anyone who had used their Credit cards in any of these ways, I suggest you closely monitor your Credit Card Statements!!
