alomex, using a credit card is dangerous, period. i've seen no evidence that using it on the net is more dangerous.

when you go to lunch the waiter sees your number. so does anybody he shows it to. the bank processors can see your number. heck, they can upload your number to their pda quite easily and post in on the net in minutes or hours.

life nis a risk and i don't see internet purchasing, when done reasonably, poses excessive risk.
