Amazon have this lovely service: if you tell if you forgot your pw, they
send you to:
https://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/self-service-forgot-password-get-email-done/104-2901457-0883904
where they ask you to confirm your identity... using 5 last digits of a
credit card you used with them.
Nice oracle to find last 5 digits... making it quite easy to find the
full number.
Not that anybody would bother. Still, I find it funny.
