It does not take a "security expert" to tell us not to give out CC info to everyone. You might do what a friend mf mine does - use a Visa Gift Card. Do not ask details, I am not sure how they work, who can get them, or how you use them. She simply buys a thousand dollar card or whatever the amount might be and she uses that. If the card info is stolen, she is not out anything. My CC company protects me against fraud and I have never lost a cent going back to my first card issued in 1973. Many people will have access to your card info, regardless of where you use it. You have two choices: worry about fraud (and, I am not saying you should not worry) and stop charging purchases or act responsibly and hope for the best. It will get worse before it gets better. Sad to say. Bob
