I suppose, but who would know how to do that and would at the same time draw attention to their credit card at the same time?

It'd be stealing from Wal*Mart, but before you ever steal you start doing cartwheels to draw attention to yourself. THEN trying to steal.

Worst thief ever.

Besides, do companies usually make it their business to pay attention to that sort of thing? They'll get their money if it works, so why should they care if it's stolen or w/e?

And why arrest the guy before figuring out if it's a legit card?
