@njoneja - "People who think identity theft and credit card fraud are the same thing are mistaken. Identity theft involves impersonating someone, usually using their Social Security number or another private form of identification (e.g. fake drivers' license etc). And that is a serious problem."So if I take your credit card into a store and use it, you wouldn't consider that me impersonating you? Personally I see credit card fraud as a "type" of identity theft.

It's stupid, but no more stupid than "Web 2.0". Why not entreat people to stop that, while they're at it?
