What scares me is the way that high value transactions (thousands of 
pounds) can be authorised purely on a chip and pin card with no other 
checks.

I have more than once bought a used car on a debit card, with no 
callback from the bank or card issuer. Surely for that sort of money a 
phone call to check that the customer really is authorising a payment of 
anything up to £7000 is in order..?
