Identity theft is the fastest growing crime in the United States. I've reordered my Visa Card twice in 4 months. Both times, within two weeks, my number was used for more than $1,000 of purchases on the net. Coincidence, or is someone rubbing a pencil over the envelope to get the raised print off the card, waiting a week or two for the card's activation, then placing orders...hmmm. The address is always to a sleazy motel.
