If I'm not mistaken, spending at Bananagold is just spending via e-gold's
SCI - so JPM doesn't nab your pin.

As far as reputation is concerned, as a security guy I can tell you that
most thefts are inside jobs, the snotty nosed cashier who knows more about
computers than the boss is the one to watch out for - he doesn't care about
the reputation of the company, it's not his.

I used to have connections to people who stole credit card details from
customers at the bars they worked at. Steal enough pins, and only rob the
big boys, and you can outrun being caught for a while.
