Crooks these days are getting more rabid and more creative it seems. Like those people who put some gizmo into the card slot of ATMs and then gain access to your account once you punch in your PIN #, etc. Or the assholes who work at some retail outlet or gas station etc. who double swipe your card using their own gadget as well as the company's, then later raid your account.
Several such operations have been shutdown here in Winnipeg over the past year, at least two doing the ATM thing and several more who were doing the double card swipe thing. Lots of arrests, but I'm doubtful that the prison sentence (if any) is long enough to discourage anyone.
