We could stop credit and debit card fraud overnight, but I need martins help.

I've just emailed the following to martin, do you think I will get a reply?

PS, don't ask what it is, I won't tell you.

HI There,

I’m a great fan of martin and his cause for the greater consumer good! I have an idea which would be fairly simple for the major banks to implement and should cut credit card fraud by about 80% - 90% overnight. However, me being just a normal hard working person no one will listen to me so I was wondering with the help of martin and his contacts he could talk to the banks and get them to listen.

If he’s genuinely interested please get him to spare me 30 seconds of his time on the phone. Once I’ve told him I’m sure that he and everyone else would say “man, why didn’t we think of that before!”

I look forward to your reply.

I could but with martin's help he could probably get the banks to actually listen.

If the banks withdrew all CC and Debit Cards, all CC - Debit Card Fraud would cease, however it wouldn't be very useful.:rotfl:

You will never stop CC & DC fraud, while humans are still involved in the process somewhere there will always be fraud

A photo on each card might help of the owner

cash only, with GPS chips in each- all notes all purchases logged, then cross referred with any suspected criminals, or bebefit claimants..

Because the OP thinks it will earn them a nice little but of money.

If passports can be faked.......

No.

You haven't given any details whatsoever, which gives the impression that you don't have any.

I certainly wouldn't reply to such a message if it ended up in my inbox (assuming it dodged the spam filters of course.)

I've already tried to obtain Martin's help/support with a system already in use and acknowledged by one Credit Reference Agency, and an ID Theft Expert as being a very good deterrent. Unfortunately Martin has still got to get back to me.

See www.freeidprotection.co.uk Whereby you can use your biometric without the need for a database, not to prove you are who you say you are, but to deter someone else from pretending to be you.
