garys_2k join:2004-05-07 Farmington, MI ·Future Nine Corpor.. ·Vonage	Asking people to sign into a "secure" web page is, IMHO, asking for trouble. Too easy to send a phish email that looks like that and includes a "helpful" link to their spoof site. I guess that, to me, sending the last few digits of the CC number is better than sending a likely bad web link. At least the CC number gives legitimacy as to who sent it.
