You gotta watch it

I have a friend who was shopping one day for her husband's birthday. She was at a big outlet mall and going from store to store. She is one of those women who thinks if one gift is good for her husband then ten are much better. Well she was in this one store and it was very busy because I forgot to mention that her husband's birthday is right around Christmas. So she was standing in line at the counter to pay and when she paid she used her credit card. She noticed the young guy who checked her out did something sort of strange with her credit card. He seemed to pull something out of his pocket and held her credit card below the counter for a few seconds. She got the card back and her purchase but when she walked out of the store she had that sinking feeling that her credit card number had just been stolen somehow. She went back into the store to talk to the manager and to her surprise when talking to the manager the young man was no where to be seen. Now mind you there was still a long line of people at the counter and after checking her and her credit card out he seemed to just vanish. She immediately went outside and got on her cell phone and called her credit card company and canceled her card and requested a replacement card. Which meant going into Christmas that year she was not able to use her credit card. Now for this woman she was in a major tail spin without one of her credit cards. I know this problem happened for her in a actual store and she was able to see what was going on but what do you do when you shop online and you have no idea what the person on the other end is doing with your credit card information;.
