Thanks Entwisti for that info.
I rarely use a card in a shop - online buying is my thing.
The card which was compromised yesterday has only been in use for 2 months and had only been used (online only) 12 times. I never allow my card details to be 'stored for next time' by any retailer.
This card has additional security for online purchasing by providing an additional screen where more ID needs to be entered before the transaction is approved.
I never open an email from someone I dont know.
You already know that my connection is safe from piggy backers.
Could rogue employees of the retailers I have used, be accessing their employers database and obtaining my card details for their personal use?
