Just thought I would post this as a reminder. I was given a credit card receipt recently that had my entire credit card number on it.
The Federal Trade Commission has issued “Slip Showing?,” an alert, to remind businesses that a federal law calls for them to truncate electronically processed credit card receipts to include no more than the last five digits of the card number, and to delete the expiration date. The law applies only to electronically printed receipts, not to handwritten or imprinted ones, and it applies to the receipts the customer is given, not to the receipts the businesses retain for their own records.
Thanks for posting Jim -
This has certainly been a hot topic recently. Here's a link to an article about the Harris theatre being sued.
