yeah i doubt this ranks up there with bonnie and clyde or the lindburgh case , but once it goes interstate , it becomes a FEDERAL deal.
now how amex or visa or any other card handles this, is beyond me. its actually beyond my feeble law abiding mind to pull this crap. but i guess it happens probably more than any of us know.
this is yer classic for me at least "well it has never happened to me and i do take extreme precautions" kind of thing and then WHAM suddenly yer called on the carpet for the piss poor actions of others.
the latest scam here in scottsdale is bad guys setting up SCANNERS on ATM machines(which i didnt do a withdrawl with) and gas station pumps.
practically invizable to the card user. you swipe yer card for gas or at an atm and it scans yer card, and then they retreive scanner and all yer info and the next thing ya know yer card is being used in FREEKING SOMALIA!
