BAHAHAHaa
I found a CC left behind in an ATM and I bought a set of nice white cotton sheets and then I told my mental health doctor and he made me cut the card up right there and then in the consulting room.
I’ve also bought things legitimately with other people’s cards and signed my own name and nobody blinked an eyelid.
I’ve got a business only CC because it works out my monthly GST, but I ditched my personal CC because it did nothing for me, especially it didn’t ever get me a cash discount no matter how many times I asked.

Unknown you are so funny, you are also a Master Comedian, and John you are not! and it’s retina.

Getting anything for free is pretty good. i grew opium poppies in my front yard and got some free painkiller from that. I also grow parsley, thyme, rosemary and my passionfruit vine has finally begun to flourish after 2 years.
I caught the bus today instead of driving and I told the driver I didn’t have the fare and he let me ride for free.

Uknown: you are a criminal mastermind? by the sounds of it your nothing but a petty thief, i mean common credit/debit card fraud is hardly criminal mastermind buisness is it…

Oh and one final thought…Would a ‘Criminal Mastermind’ waste his and everybody elses time by leaving a totaly ename comment on a discusion site?

MoneyNing: i went to a convension in tokyo and was amazed to see a cash machine which required a finger print sample aswell as a four digit personal identification number. Although im sure this would come into effect in countrys like the uk due to human rights infringement.

I wonder how long it will be before we see retner scanning technology in our cash machines and Pds’s

I was born in El Salvador and go back there to vacation often. There, when you use a credit card, not only do you have to show your ID but they also write your ID/DL number on the receipt and ask you for your phone number. Credit card fraud is not something they see too often. If you’re not local, they check your passport, they don’t play with that.

Oddly enough, I don’t think I’ve had to show ID more than twice. My cards aren’t signed either. It’s a game to me. When I used to work in retail, I’d always ask if a card wasn’t signed. I don’t think that’s illegal, it’s being cautious. We’d check bills to make sure they’re not fake, why not ID for unsigned cards?

I wrote “Check ID” in my signature line but am amazed at how often it does NOT happen… altho I rarely use the card anyway…

I think I will write as above Photo ID required….

who cares if they dont ask for ID. If the card is stolen and used, the credit card company reverses the charge(once the user complaints) and the merchant has to prove that the owner of the card actually used it. If the merchant cannot prove it then he has to pay a heavy fine. The credit card user is completely protected as long as he reports the loss and contests the charge on the bill.

They don’t ask for ID because they are not allowed to. That is, if it’s a Visa card. Most people who ask for ID don’t know they shouldn’t.
