some are stolen lists by ex employees of credit card companies, some are hackers who get into files of the credit card companies & some the credit card companies actually sell lists to buyers. You can check your cards privacy act to see if the state they do not sell lists. When I worked in telemarketing, mastercard esp. would sell us lists of cardholders with their card numbers to call for our vacation packages. I would never use the card number on the sheet but always ask the customer which way they wanted to purchase their vacation package. Scary world we live in huh?
