We too had our credit card info stolen at the Murphy Oil on 466 last year. It was the only place I had used that particular card for some time. The credit card company called to ask about a charge being made at a dollar store. The charge was denied.

I feel safe going to Shell stations on 466 and the one at 301 and 44. They all have new pumps with signs on them that say they are credit card protected.

I thought the solution to this problem was to simply buy gift cash cards but on another thread the OP said a gift card purchased for gas on 3/06 was used in another state on 3/12.

So the way its going for Americans if more of us would simply use cash chances are hackers would convert to muggers.

You would believe that these IT guys who are demanding high salaries would be a cut or two or three above the common hacker but you and I would be wrong. Maybe some of these companies instead of recruiting IT people from universities would recruit from the streets. I mean it takes a crook to...........
