Why online stores and companies can’t steal people’s credit card information ?

575 views

I know it’s weird but I know many people who will refuse to put their credit card information on websites like ebay or even amazon claiming that they will charge them extra money or steal their information

so i want to ask why can’t people from these huge companies do that?

Companies like repeat business. Ripping someone off is a good way to not get them to ever return. Same idea as why drug dealers usually don’t rip you off; they want you to keep coming back to give them more money.

If you’re asking why individual workers don’t steal the numbers, usually at places like that everything that shows up on their computer screen is recorded and when fraudulent charges show up on a customers credit card, it’s easy to see who looked at the numbers, if they are even able to look at the numbers. There is almost nothing you can get with credit card numbers that’s worth going to jail or losing a good job that would pay you more than you can steal.
