Card tampered with in the post?

Received my new MBNA card today in the post. Noticed the envelope was torn away down the side of the address window. You could open the hole to read the card number and even remove the card to get the 3 digit security number from the back. Could have been ripped accidently but had a vision of someone waiting for me to activate the card before going on a spending spree. Well fcuk you, I've cancelled the card and asked for a new card and pin, get a legal paying job.

I was already beginning to think it had been lost in the post, it was taking that long to come. I'd gladly let the card issuer charge me the price of special delivery to make sure I got it.
