Which are our major banks. We already have a problem with the damn mortgage sector completely killing our economy, (gasoline prices aren't helping) I don't think we need the major banks to stop giving out credit cards right now. Banks are the in the business to make money not lose it. $0.99 music tracks for free is one thing, this is just horrid. Great to know, so I can watch out for strange people in big coats touching people's butts, but besides that this in my eyes is horrible.

I dont pay premiums on credit cards. I have never paid any interest rates, so that is not a problem, and my mortgage for my house was paid off years ago. All my credit cards have no yearly fees.

So yeah, its not my problem. Credit card companies will be stuck paying the bill; its not my problem]]>Mar 19th 2008 9:29PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/19/rfid-credit-cards-easily-hacked-with-8-reader/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/19/rfid-credit-cards-easily-hacked-with-8-reader/Mar 20th 2008 9:02AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/19/rfid-credit-cards-easily-hacked-with-8-reader/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/19/rfid-credit-cards-easily-hacked-with-8-reader/Mar 19th 2008 7:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/19/rfid-credit-cards-easily-hacked-with-8-reader/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/19/rfid-credit-cards-easily-hacked-with-8-reader/

It looks like he is using an actual reader meant to read those cards, which I cannot find on eBay, and I doubt it would go for as little as $8.

And I'm not so sure the actual card number would be available on the RFID. If you call Amex, they can disableth RFID portion of the card (i.e. it will workbut no longer be accepted) If it used your normal account number, I don't think you could do that.]]>Mar 19th 2008 10:32PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/19/rfid-credit-cards-easily-hacked-with-8-reader/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/19/rfid-credit-cards-easily-hacked-with-8-reader/Mar 19th 2008 11:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/19/rfid-credit-cards-easily-hacked-with-8-reader/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/19/rfid-credit-cards-easily-hacked-with-8-reader/Mar 20th 2008 12:10AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/19/rfid-credit-cards-easily-hacked-with-8-reader/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/19/rfid-credit-cards-easily-hacked-with-8-reader/Mar 20th 2008 2:53AM
