I only recently used the card to purchase a filter wheel from True Technologies in the UK but because they don't have online ordering I supplied the card details over a few e-mails from two different computers.

Hans I had a similar problem last year and will now only use sites that offer paypal as an option to buy from them. Luckily the bank was straight on it and had locked my master card before I even knew it had happened. Luckily it was only $60 but the potential for some turd to run riot with your credit card is pretty high if you go giving the number out. Unlike yours mine was breached by someone in california.
