I want you to consider how wrong you might be. Filtering is defensive in nature, and the quality of a banks' filtering affects the value of CC numbers stolen from it. How many false positives will you accept in order to make your CC number virtually worthless to thieves?

I have no idea of course. Maybe the bank is incompetent and getting robbed blind, but I think what I describe above is a distinct possibility.
