I saw the original broadcast on CBC. I just don't believe the reporting on this. They demo'd it. The girl had her credit card basically falling out of her pocket. A guy had to touch his phone to the credit card for a few seconds in order to get it to scan. He then used his phone to buy a coke at a coke machine using her card. I'd like to see a demo of this where the credit card owner is not aware of whats going on. Presumably the phone can't scan the card when its inside a wallet, or even fully inside a pocket protected by 1/8" of cloth. With access to the physical card, yes you can use someones credit card. Call 1985 - the problem is the exact same as with cards back then.
