Identity theft? That’s what this is for? Looks like it would be able to withstand some seriously crowbar / shotgun action too.



What if the vandals just drop off some M80’s into that slot?
@Twosticks:
Then they would be the proud owners of burn paper and metal shards through the eyes?
I wonder how much identity theft these days is done through snail mail as opposed to electronically, or RFID interception.
@1llume:
seriously, why would I waste my time going through someone’s mail to get a single account when I can get hundreds of thousands of them just by haxxing into TJ Maxx’s wireless APs?
What’s next wallets under lock and key?
@tiki god: I had a seasonal job at Best Buy and customers constantly thought that the “check ID” comment on the back of the card was going to do something.
“You didn’t check my signature”
“The vast majority of identity and credit theft is done over the internet, ma’am. If someone other than you had your card, you would have noticed it was gone, and canceled it. Right?”
“Uh, good point”
@Twosticks: Signatures on credit cards are NOT there for identification purposes. The signature is there because the credit card is a legally binding contract. Does anyone really expect a register jockey to do forensic handwriting analysis?
