    yep, you probably know also that this was discussed with the credit card companies a couple of years back, their response was that they were happy with the security.

    if you check the blackhat dc 2008 archives, you should be able to see "major malfunction" demo an rfid read of american express card.

    rfids currently offer very poor security, but there are public key crypto solutions on the way..
