have been buying from Kobo for years, and never had a problem. I also wonder how legitimate it was for the user accusing rakuten to jump to the conclusion that the fraud was coming from their site. It is of course possible that Rakuten is the culprit, but I've been victim of fraud with "my card" used in a foreign country where I had never been - in short, the two things may be unrelated.
There is a fairly widespread international internet-based secondary market for credit card numbers; the last time I looked at this, if you had a name, CC number, expiration date, and CVV (the number on the back), you could sell that for about $15.

I used Kobo to purchase several eBooks.

No issues yet. (Knock on wood).
