Dangerous!!!

So does this mean if someone was to lose their phone anyone could just tap away and use their money. This seems very dangerous to me. I would never have my credit card information on my phone.
Another thing...why do people have such a problem with having to show their id in order to use a cc or check. It is really meant for their protection. It's scary to know how easy it is to steal someones money. I hope this never happens to me.

Just as dangerous if you lose your actual credit card. First people would have to know you phone is your card to use it if you lost it, then, even if they did, you still would have every right to contest charges with your credit card company, the same as you do now.

I'm sure if your phone was lost or stolen that you could call from a land-line or other cell phone or go on-line and remove your credit card information very easily... and then you would call and suspend your phone service so that no one could use ur phone.
