You find lots of people doing this on the net.

If you have a look you will find lots and lots of websites and message boards on the internet.

Its even worse when they use stolen card details, which is not hard to do. I have warned lots of people about throwing receipts away.

In a local cinima, people pay by credit card then through the recepts on the flloor, this gives all the card details.

It is getting a bit better now as most firms seem to ask for a lot more details.

I think it would be better if firms that take card details, along with a password and a username, also asked for some personal detail, such as the first line of the persons address, I am sure that people would be less keen to post these details, so you would need to access a site:
password
username
address

But whatever steps you take, if somone is keen to get hack your site, I am sure they will. Best thing to do is damage limitation.
