In the five minutes between handing the waiter/waitress the card and getting a bill, virtually every piece of information on the card can be copied or used.

Yes. It's mind boggling. We order take out twice a week and use another card for that. We give them that credit card over the phone. I would have expected it to happen there or at a restaurant. We've decided to do it the old fashioned way. Keep cash for things we might need. But tonight we forgot and hubby handed over his credit card to the waitress.This is going to take some getting used to.
