    Automated script most likely taking advantage of a well known vulnerability.

    Nice source of email addresses for spamming but also regular CC use.

    No that is not the case.

    TI do not act as a merchant bank. They pass through to RealEx I believe.

    Regardless anyone processing credit card details has to be PCI compliant. Having worked in a company that made PCI compliant software I'd be confident that the bank/cc details are safe.

    Everything else is comprised though.

    Thanks Mr T. Good to be reassured.

    Well if you allow them to be taken they're going to pop up somewhere. Look what happened Tommy & Pam.

    PCI Compliance of sites with low throughput is poor IMO. The pass requirements are not overly strict. But they use RealEx so in theory should have no need to save your details locally, doesn't mean they don't
