>>Here's a solution to fraudulent credit card problems...and you can still use the card. Open a checking account that is specifically for credit card transactions. Don't get overdraft protection on the account. Get a VISA or MasterCard checking card for the account. Keep a small balance in the account. You can never be charged more than is in the account.

>If your card or number is stolen and used, your credit card company is only allowed to charge you $50. They may decide to drop you as a customer if they suspect you were in on it, or were negligent in reporting the theft, but you will NOT be billed for charges made to a stolen card.
Yup, I'm aware of that. I've discussed credit card use on the web with several people who won't do it...until I mentioned the above idea. They jumped at the suggestion.
