Barry, You bring up a very interesting topic there, I a with you on this but how would you know if they did or not based on the website. I guess you could ring them and speak to a sales person who really doesn't know...
I do get asked this question a lot by people who are not that savvy, and I find it difficult to give them a satisfactory answer here, maybe there is some form of ISO or other standard that could be put into place that a website needs to display. Would be interested to know what others see and let there customers know that the site is secured from fraud on this:-) Regards Andrew Scott Technical Consultant NuSphere Pty Ltd Level 2/33 Bank Street South Melbourne, Victoria, 3205 Phone: 03 9686 0485 - Fax: 03 9699 7976 -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Barry Beattie Sent: Monday, 17 May 2004 10:08 AM To: CFAussie Mailing List Subject: [cfaussie] Re: PHP Problem years ago (when I was using ASP) a prospective client wanted to SMS the credit card details to his mobile for offline processing. thankfully I was able to escape from that project! If I knew my CC details were being emailed for processing I would buy elsewhere. Far too much CC fraud is done by employees getting hold of the data (remember people using the carbon off paper processing machines years ago?). Maybe I'm too fussy but with the amount of CC fraud, unless the merchant uses a reputable payment gateway, I don't buy. just my consumer $0.02 worth barry.b --- You are currently subscribed to cfaussie as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] MXDU2004 + Macromedia DevCon AsiaPac + Sydney, Australia http://www.mxdu.com/ + 24-25 February, 2004
