Abstract

The present article discusses the issue of credit card operation on the market, taking into account transactions performed with the usage of “plastic money”. The crucial aspect here is the crime of “skimming” and its influence on the technical, organisational and legal changes made in the institution of the credit card. The term EMV is strictly connected with this issue as a global standard of payment service with the use of microprocessor cards. It significantly contributed to the changes in the crime map in the field discussed, in particular, to the migration of card frauds from one geographical area to another
