This also happened to my mother in law last year. She doesn't shop with her card online and people were still able to get her card info. It was believed someone had walked by her with an RF reader that took the info from her smart chip. Since then we have all purchased an RF protecting wallet. It is basically lined with a material that blocks RF transmission.

Just a thought, I would hate for any websites to get blamed.

Keep ion mind as well that if your card leaves your hands at a restaurant, etc. keep an eye on it or the server at all times.

Hate that we have to live this way but ID Theft, is a huge PITA!
