re: Check That Credit Card Statement

US issued CCs are much more vulnerable to fraud than Euro issued CCs since US CC Companies have resisted the mandatory use of PINS. So Euro crooks love to get a hold of US card #s.

One of life’s great mysteries. It is astounding how we simply handover a credit card in the US to a waiter at a restaurant and he returns within a few minutes later with the credit card check for us to sign. I’ve been working in Calgary for the past few months and the card never leaves my hand. They bring a wireless machine out to the table and you put your card in the machine and enter your PIN...blows my mind why the US hasn’t fully grasped this yet. Some restaurants have it but I find them very few and far between
