But with a credit card, crook can use your zip code instead of a pin number to get in.
Why is there no protection from this weakness?

you’ll have to check with your bank on debit cards, the underlying principle is that someone can wipe out your account without having the zero-$50 fraud liability. my bank is good about fraud on debit cards if you catch it quickly. i use my debit card for under $15 purchases since i get 15cents for every POS charge on it. but i use cc for everything else b/c of the security concerns.

I didn’t know about the use of Debit vs. Credit Cards.

Thanks for the tips!
