Pascal,

Have you ever handed your credit card to a waiter in a restaurant? How
about made a mail order purchase over the telephone? All those companies
have employees and they have access to your number without anything as
complicated as e-mail hacking.  That's why credit cards have liberal
contest procedures. Just keep an eye on what shows up on your bill &
check with your credit card company if you see something suspicious. I
think you will find that if somebody were to make a fraudulent purchase
you are pretty much covered.
