    In the US, credit card users are not responsible for charges above $50 that
    they did not make.  Important point to remember is that debit cards do not
    have this protection, these are the cards that US banks issue that double 
    as ATM cards and VISA credit cards that deduct directly out of a personal
    checking account.
