Also don't let the card ever leave your sight. They use hand scanners (at least in the UK) so a server never has a chance to copy your card. Our security team took my card and in less than 30 seconds made a copy on an old hotel key that I later used to purchase gas. The technology used was hand held and about $300 on eBay. Scary stuff! I pity the last bank to convert as all fraudsters will focus on the weakest link.
