Since that, I've gotten a separate card with a low limit that I use for all online purchases.
Same here. OFG sends me an email that Campy cassettes are in stock at PBK, I buy one on Saturday morning, and Chase calls me up Today to ask about suspicious activity. Card cancelled, new one on the way. No loss on my part, about $20 total in fraudulent charges.

Another, different card opened upexpressly for internet purchases about 10 minutes ago.

Thanks a lot, OFG.
