Well that is illegal for one thing...if the cc companies catch them they 
will get spanked hard ;-) You MUST have a merchant acount(s) for ONLINE 
Txs....using the terminal for online sales is a no no

Storing CC numbers opens the site up to an expensive security audit from the 
cc companies and opens the client (and possibly yourself) to some major 
liability...DO NOT DO IT UNLESS YOU'RE SURE IT'S SAFE!!

Yes...but see above ;-)
