At Uni in Sheffield I had a friend who was mugged and dragged to the cash point where the 3 guys who had jumped him procceded to break his fingers until he told them the right pin code, even that is better than loosing an appendage]]>Jul 24th 2007 9:11AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/24/hitachi-jcb-developing-biometric-payment-system/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/24/hitachi-jcb-developing-biometric-payment-system/
Thumb lost in robbery - Last night at 02.15 AM Chris Robertson, a 40 yr old husband and father of five was robbed in Church street. The muggers used a pair of industrial scissors to cut of his thumb. The thumb and the creditcard have been used to withdraw money at several ATM-machines accross the city. ]]>Jul 24th 2007 9:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/24/hitachi-jcb-developing-biometric-payment-system/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/24/hitachi-jcb-developing-biometric-payment-system/Also if you live in an area where they cut of your hand to get at your ATM perhaps you should move?

It was the myth of fingerprints.

I do not have a problem using a PIN. If I had to put my hand on some dirty glass every time I wanted to spend my money, I would probably go back to using cash.
And can you imagine the problems when the system goes down in a store or airport.

What are staff going to do then, examine everyones hands with a magnifying glass.
Of course not. They will check signatures like they always have.
