Saw mention of a place called CardCops; a servers that supposedly checks to see if your credit card is among the many floating out there that are stolen. Since I once had my card stolen once before, I’m going to give it a try. The thing is, while there really isn’t a whole lot of harm in entering ONLY your CC number to check, what’s stopping a site like this from nabbing a person’s name details from cookies to complete the process of actually stealing numbers instead of reporting ones already taken?
