Cheese-Buyer's Remorse
Don't give your credit card number to shady porn sites or telemarketers, and check your statement online once a week and if you see any fraudulent transactions, call the number on the back of your card and report it immediately. Congrats, you've done your part to prevent credit card fraud.

Also, the anti-fraud algorithms the banks use are pretty flaky. One of my cards' fraud warning systems has called me about "suspicious" transactions like the grocery store I literally shop at every week and Amazon purchases shipped to my billing address, but was just fine with some dude using a fake copy of my card to buy hamburgers and some poo poo at Wal-Mart a thousand miles away from where I live at the exact same time I was buying lunch here. :downs:
