If credit cards are so care free, how come there are so many hacker stories in the news, like J.C. Penny etc.. J.C. Penny is having a tough time lately because of the sensitive information that was lost.

When something is "new" and better, like new cards, isn't it just a matter of time before crooks figure out how to tap into it?

P.S. The cash in my wallet works perfectly every time and I don't have to check my email after spending. And there's no danger of carrying a lot of cash. Whenever I purchase a big item, which is rare, I pay by check.
