YOU GOT A LETTER FROM AMAZON STATING THAT THEIR CREDIT CARD SYATEM HAS BEEN COMPROMIZED!!!!

Call the news papers! Call the TV stations! THIS IS NEWS!

I don't think that you are Amazon bashing, but it's kinda hard to believe some of the things that you want us to believe.

It's far more likely that your computer was compromised sometime in the past. Even if it has no malware on it now, that's a more likely suspect than an Amazon employee dipping their hand in to the data stream and getting your numbers.

Whatever.

If you want to be VERY safe just get a debit card. Some banks still have a "no minimum" debit account. Most have some kind of limits though.

I keep a minimum in a bank unrelated to my normal account. When I'm about to make a purchase I deposit the amount needed to cover that purchase. This card is ONLY used for internet purchases.

If that debit card is compromised, no big loss.
