Chip and PIN was introduced to move the liability from the card issuer to the card holder since the only way it could now be used would be in the cardholder's presence. It is not so bad if they fiddle your card abroad and you can show you were not in that country, but if someone uses a clone of your card in your local Tesco just try to get the money back from that one.
Just don't get me started on that Verified by Visa one either ........ mutter mutter millenium hand and shrimp

The problem is that as long as you've got something someone wants then they will find a way of getting it, be it physically or electronically, so basically your [size=18]STUFFED[/size] :(.
