New York Times: Credit card theft thrives online

Matt Richtel reports on how easily stolen credit card numbers are shared over the Internet.

Mr. Power, from the Computer Security Institute, said: "You don't want to be an alarmist and say, `The sky is falling, and Visa is going to crumble.'

"There's a lot more hemorrhaging going on than some people believe," he said.
