This is the funniest thing i've ever heard.

 

When I had fraud on my CSP.....Guess where it was used. England.

If it were me, I would wait. I don't like the look for the chip.


The only card that can rock the chip and look nice is the csp , other than that it basically ruins all the cards look ! The slate with emv looks horrible !!!!! 


I wish they embed the chip on the back of the SP

Then how on Earth are you blaming EMV for that failure? EMV protects against CARD-PRESENT fraud that arises from cloned cards. The much less popular, and even less frequently properly implemented, 3-D Secure protects against Internet fraud like you mention.

 

Oh, and what I said is not contradicted by your experience. I said it keeps a CLONE of your CARD from being used overseas. I said nothing about it preventing card-not-present use with data from the card. Most likely, at a shop that didn't check CVV2, as CVV2 can't be skimmed.
