I do love the product and don't want to appear like I'm bashing it. Great work on lunching! Best of luck!

However, it seems if this practice (scanning card) becomes more widely adopted and becomes a standard process of detecting fraud, it'd become a relatively easy target for fraudsters to crack, right? I don't know if DL or card making technology will outpace fraudsters' will to make fake cards?

Further more, if I'm a fraudster and know some websites that adopt this policy, there is a big incentive for me to get a credit card embossing kit to start making cards, right? After all, I'd think it is far easier to make a copy of a card than making the magnetic strip thing? And given your tech is a strong signal of 'not fraud', if it is relatively easy to beat this system, wouldn't it attract a huge number of fraudsters?
