> Not only are there enormous protections with the mis-use of one's credit card, but the 'password'/card number is randomly generated and not used elsewhere.

Not true. My mother got a free credit card that she never used and never even took out of her safe box, and a few weeks ago someone used that card to buy a Microsoft gift card. Luckily for her, she regularly checks the bank's statements.

I'm convinced there's a workaround to buy stuff using just the numbers, because that's how cards used to work a few decades ago.
