From Robert X. Cringley at InfoWorld...08-05-02
Yet another spy has reason to believe that someone is poking around Chase's network and lifting credit cards numbers. My spy received a card from Chase and then decided not to activate it. Later, the spy received a call from Chase saying someone overseas was using it to pay water bills via the Internet. Chase's rep explained that after about six months,
if the card is not activated but the customer doesn't complain about not getting the card, Chase activates it. (emphasis mine...Cadd.) The thing is, because my spy never used the card, nobody even saw it other than Chase, the spy, and, um, whoever was using it to pay those bills.

What the heck is up with
that!
Is just cutting up an unsolicited card enough?

Would you have to call and
complain???
This credit card stuff is out of hand!
Cadd.
