Don't this just beat all??

Think about it, you could type in a credit card number one off rom yours, and the bill goes to someone else. But that never happens. Have you oever ordered something online and you have one number transposed, but it tells you invalid number? There is some system that credit card companies use to assign numbers, and I assume bank accounts use a similar system.

That's why you also have to give the expiration date and often the security code off the back. What's the odds of messing all three up so they match another account?
