Fingerprint scanning is going mainstream, heres a post about Amazon using palm scans on point of sale systems [1]. It seems reasonable that point of sale systems will get hacked or skimmers will get installed (common problems impacting normal people today). The current fix is to issue a new card. Unfortunately, you cannot have a new finger/palm print issued, so the threat appears unmitigated.
