Ive treated myself to a credit card holder which offers protection from
people trying to scan my card. It wasnt at all expensive about £3 I
think.

wondering why all the fuss now.
A few links below - by the way, for people saying about numbers being
synced, yes, the store will have to be synced as always.
But the card won't be - that's not how these card work, or indeed the
number entry pads the bank give you. Neither are wirelessly synced to
anything.

How long did it take for even one High Street bank to roll out talking

Suppose the retailer wouldn't have any problems with the security code since
whatever code the card was showing at any time would be correct at that

Yes, a bit scary. I wonder what the cost of producing such cards would be
and whether the cost would outweigh what is lost via fraud.
I can see that the technology to change the number within the card wouldn't
be too problematic but I'm wondering how the retailer would know if that is
the correct security number.
