Exactly, and there lies most of the problem. AMEX started this 'not responsible for online fraud' campaign about 3 years ago and in a matter of months I noticed I was getting all these chargebacks from AMEX cardholders where I was getting virtually none before. Then Visa followed suit and the chargebacks jumped with them. They are basically advertising the fact they will back the consumer in any online transaction dispute.
We get fucked by the govt with taxes, get fucked by the processors and get fucked by the consumers, yet businesses are looked upon as the bad guys.
