Sadly the educational system does not teach long hand sny more and most people just scribble their signatures.

Just chip, Martin. I got a new chip card last week and used it at Tesco in the UK. Sure, it had to read the chip and could not be swiped, but no PIN, just sign as usual and compare signatures - seems the Brits are much more stringent in checking signatures on cards than in the US.

 Seriously Ed? Do you really think a major hotel chain is going to
tell potential customers their credit card system is insecure?

Credit card companies are on the verge of providing an incentive by
making
vendors liable for fraudulent charges on insecure credit cards.

That went into effect as of October 1. That is why all the credit
cards are being reissued with chips. If a card with a chip is
presented to a merchant and the card is swiped in lieu of the chip
being read, the merchant is responsible for the fraudulent charge.
