Terry,
The hackers aren't after single credit card numbers, they are after the
databases full of hundreds of thousands of numbers.
True, there is a certain amount of exposure sending your credit card
number via email, but the reality is that it is a lot more secure than
handing you credit card to a waiter at a restaurant and having it out
of your possession while they run the transaction.
I wasn't faulting ASI for there process, I was just pointing out the
situation.
John.
