I keep my bank card behind my ID in my cardholder and just pull both out when I use credit and if they look - cool, if not.. whatever. Even if it requires pulling my ID/wallet/whatever back out I'd rather someone check then just be okay with it and let some fucktard get away with that shit. At one job, on larger purchases we'd ALSO swipe your CC in our ID-check machine to ensure the info matched AND check the last 4 printed on the receipt. *Safety over scams.*
