Thread Name: BS: credit card fraud (UK)
Subject: RE: BS: credit card fraud (UK)
with consent - is meaningless if you don't have proof. Written or witnessed.

Then again, "card holder not present" is strictly speaking the responsibility of the vendor, but once the police are involved - fraud is the crime, not theft.

Fraud is defined (legally) as "obtaining money by deception". Maybe using a credit card is in that category.
