> gaping OpSec hole you have that resulted in the disclosure of your card number to a third party

You mean like the server I hand my credit card to to pay my check at dinner?




Yes, that is in fact a security gap that can be (and is) exploited. In Europe at least, they bring the payment point to you and you place the card yourself (or ask you to go to the register)


Yes, that could potentially be a source. There could be another source as well, since you’re experiencing this multiple times.

I personally pay cash if they can’t bring the POS Terminal to my table.
