Yeah I wouldn't be impressed with that. My cards don't have any amount to pay when I get compromised. Which is good as I booked a trip around Thailand and used my personal credit card for it, and used pre pay cards when I got there.

I got back and within a few weeks I started getting transactions booked to personal card. I delibratly didn't use that card this time (as this happens all the time when I head to Asia) and hence why I got the pre pay cards. But either Bangkok Airways, Air Asia, or JetStar have had there systems compromised, as sure enough like clock work the fraudulent charges started.

Luckily you mention asia and credit card fraud and you don't even have to supply evidence, Master Card just roll the transactions back immediatly and cancel the card. I guess its cheaper for them to do that waste time getting evidence for each incident.
