Lots of talk going on here about safety on the net with Credit card transactions. Nope your right nothing is 100% safe when dealing with on line transactions, anything can be decrypted as long as you have the relevant tools and codes etc.


Want to be safe, ring em up, otherwise the most you can hope for is a safe server ie ssl 192 bit preferbaly 128 bit definatley though not many 192 bit about.



If you worry about these things I would adopt the position of Debra small limit Cedit card through paypal who guarantee your safety, thought they too are as vunerable as some.


I deal with this stuff everyday(I am a systems administrator for a softwarehouse)my company adopts the stance of not allowing payment on line. JUst remeber to watch for the lock its a good sign just not 100% if in doubt ring them.


Just for reference Hackers wouldn't sift your mail they would just take it and search through it easy to do with search or find options, once one bit that could be usefull is found you then ask your email client to find all other mail from this person,sometimes from experience I have found these people will go to extraorsdinary lengths to get what they want from you.
