  wat are the security measures for this?

  basically i alway think CC dont decent security measures.
  
  1)most of the time, the cashier dont check your signature at the back to verify.
  2)by right, CC company encourage card owner to see the process of the transaction.
  3)internet, haih.... even your 5years old son can use your number to buy PS3.

  even if you are using a debit card, you have to be careful too. some cashiers dont even check the signature on the card to the one signed on the receipt.
