Web Threats Keep Users Awayhttp://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1759,1877846,00.aspQUOTE
New research released by Consumer Reports WebWatch finds that U.S. Internet users are cutting back on the hours they spend online, shunning e-commerce and refusing to give out personal information as a result of the rising tide of Web-based crimes related to identity theft.

well thats good for business. Wouldn't it be nice if there was a foundation dedicated to eduacating consumers on what is safe and whats not safe when online. Like so many things a few bad apples can cause big problems.
Personally I'm really not worried about giving out my CC to anywebsite. Its soo easy to do a charge back these days and hard enough for a merchant to prove they are in the right - even when they are!
