RFID Reader demo at Last HOPE

CNET News video -- This demo at Last HOPE shows how someone can swipe the data from an RFID chip on your credit card or building access badge. Michael Aiello, president of DIFRwear (difrwear.com), in the video, sells cases for credit cards, wallets and passports (new U.S. passports have RFID chips) to protect against this type of data theft.

@recommenderinaction " criminal " ....you call " criminal " someone who succeed in robbing stuff from shops which swindle people the whole year along ! Have you got yout own brain or do you share a partial brain from Window ? Don't you understand that when Nato or US calls Somalians "pirats" , for their hidjacking oil tankers , this Oil has been robbed from Irakian people , killing some millions of innocent to robb it easy!? ?

Just think to that = who is swindling who ?

So RFID chips only carry the card number expiry and name, and can only be used for online purchases. And online purchases can be traced anyways. Since RFID chips don't carry the information criminals are able to re-write onto cards and go make in store purchases, I don't see the threat. OR am I wrong?
