gollark: Credit card abuse is maybe not very common, but if the system works it's DEFINITELY not because of any technical merits of it.
gollark: All the information you need, as far as I know, is literally written *on the card*.
gollark: "If they start doing stuff you don't want with it, you just have to hope someone notices and stops it, but it might stop transactions you actually want to make randomly anyway."
gollark: "Ah yes, you need to give someone these numbers to make a transaction, and they're literally all written on the card anyway, and if they have the numbers they can arbitrarily make any amount of transactions they want."
