Robert,

Please do. For many "small" store owners the ISP does not always install the
PGP correctly, so this will help them.

Thanks

Anton

I have a mod that will print it on the email to the shop owner in 4.8.x
without messing with encryption if anyone is interested. I've been
meaning to post it anyway. Let me know and I'll post it.

Just an example:

In Denmark there was a shop which did exactly that. One day some persons
stole the mail archive with all the card #'s and began doing nice things
with various online stores.

The bank, in this case the shops bank, has the legal responsibility in
Denmark (I dont know the law else where) so they had to pay the
transfers of
money which could not be stopped. Then the bank filed a case against the
shop for improper storage of card #'s.

So you should make sure that all such mails are encrypted at the least -
but
preferably completely nuke the card #'s as soon as you have gotten your
money (and hey! Isnt that what its all about ???)!

I suggest that you educate the people that are asking you to do this to
the
high risks of allowing credit card numbers to become visible to people
that
don't have a need for access to them in order to process the order.

Perhaps you are a small shop like mine, in which case it's no problem.
Scotty and I process orders interchangeably, and so we both have full
access
to all of the computers, card #,s etc.

But, once you get much bigger than that, you end up having these number
floating around, either on computers, or on paper, where people can
access
them have no need to, or worse yet, where someone can hack into the
computer
and capture them.
