Chip and Pin - the answer to the card cloning problem. Not.

[William "Bill" Kisse]

This is shocking news and virtually guarantees all the criminal organizations in the world are keeping up with technology.

What is the best authentication method?

Iris scan, fingerprint, breathalyzer (seriously remember reading about this some time ago)?

In a discussion about fraud...

I'm sure many of you have seen the multiple security embedded in our new 100-spot.

I understand the Iranians have been printing counterfeit 100's by the ton...along with who-knows-who.

So now that the "New $100.00" is in circulation, wouldn't it be prudent for the U.S. to declare all old bills invalid by a date certain?

Does this make sense?
