Nothing Alarming !!! :-)
Read carefully...the whole chip was NEVER copied. Only the very same info (visible on the card's surface too) being copied to magstripe cards for 'fraud'. The whole WORLD (including Canada and Mexico) has agreed to convert to EMV contact chip cards for their financial cards, ONLY USA refuses to convert; prefers to stay in magstripe, and at the most RFID cards (the closest!).
The irony is that MasterCard Worldwide and Visa International managed to convince the whole world but failed in their mission with MasterCard USA and Visa USA...the country where the 2 organisations originated.
Well the saying is proven again...
"A prophet is never popular or accepted in his own community..."
As for the PIN...the cards industry has encouraged the banking industry to move from SDA to DDA long ago. But as we all know, the conservative and most-of-the-time "stingy" banking industry still refuses to move... :-(
