The store should be at fault. Not checking ID. That should be the #1 rule when a business has a credit card machine. They hold 100% of the responsibility if they don't. They pay ALL the victims fees, charges and heart ache. When People are held more accountable for their actions, they will start using their heads better. NO ID NO CREDIT CARD!
Wal*Mart should also be able to immediately void all gift cards that were purchased using stolen credit cards. Simple procedure -- just push a button on a computer!!
Why can't they do this??
