introduction of Chip and PIN 3 years ago was hailed by the the banks and was to be rolled out to rest off the world until some gang for way around the cards last summer 2008 the city off Galway Ireland was hit , my boss was cought out 2500 euros . that stole his PIN number via the terminal at the supermarket . While chip and pin technology has helped reduce crime at the tills , when it comes to telephone , internet , and mail order fraud known in the industry as card-not-present or CNP fraud - the figures are growing . if your travel and you have a chip and pin card want tell you bank as look to beused via it chip frist and the magnetic stripes .
