Can gas station attendants access my credit card number when I pay at the pump? Similarly, can any normal cashier/bagger/checker/etc. at a store with a self-swipe console charge my account after I have left? Of course, the store’s corporate computer needs my number, but it seems like the point-of-sale employee is outside the transaction. Nevertheless, I have been paying with cash more often in an attempt to reduce my risk of unauthorized charges. Am I being overly cautious?
