A number of credit card companies now issue credit cards with embedded RFIDs (radio frequency ID tags), with promises of enhanced security and speedy transactions.But on today's episode of Boing Boing tv, hacker and inventor Pablos Holman shows Xeni how you can use about $8 worth of gear bought on eBay to read personal data from those credit cards -- cardholder name, credit card number, and whatever else your bank embeds in this manner.Fears over data leaks from RFID-enabled cards aren't new, and some argue they're overblown -- but this demo shows just how cheap and easy the "sniffing" can be.This episode is part of our ongoing series of interviews with some of the thinkers, hackers, and tinkerers at the O'Reilly Emerging Technology conference this year.For more episodes of Boing Boing tv, visit tv.boingboing.net.

Chase tried to foist one of those chipped cards on me.Since my existing non-chipped card is valid for 2 more years, I decided to cut up the chipped card and stick the pieces in the microwave. Made a nice fireworks show complete with sound effects. Bye bye chip.Called up Chase and told them never to send me a chipped card again. Also said if the only choice is a chipped card when my old card expires, then I will close my account

he said the real reason: This is a surveillance mechanism period. This is so they can scan any area and find out who is there. sick.

no.. but you can use a "random number generator" and....since most pins are 4 digits long. it wont take that long to hack. and since a LOT of folks use passwords/pins like birthdays and such.. use a little social mischiff and bang... free money. . .

So, if everyone who put in their $1000 savings wanted to close their accounts -- it couldn't be done -Good point. I have had many times that my bank has made it difficult to remove large chunks under some "security" excuse.
