I seriously cannot believe people do not know that credit cards are never kept on this server.

I have shopped here and other places online for 10 plus years online never have I been defrauded. You are more likely to be defrauded if you answer a fake Phishing email from your bank than at any online store. 

Only once have I heard it happen and this was in Australia with an online florist, and all credit cards info was stolent but this site had woeful security which they are now rectifiying.

Plus if you are smart you will have  alimit of 100 dollars and use a debit credit card like I do, they can try and take your money but are you going to cry over 100 dollars I dont think so, if you shop online you have to be smart, ring you credit company and put a limit on the credit card you use.

Enough of the pointing of fingers its not helping anyone and it happens everyday online.
Where do you think spammers get your email address anyway, they buy them like we buy milk for our coffee its a fact of like, sign up to any online newsletter at all the biggest pc help places and see if you do not get spam instantly with a clean email address.

Use a web based email for places online, my home address has been the same for 12 years never have I recieved spam.
