Can't be used to load other people's cards

On: The Universal Card

You can't just grab cards and scan them into a PocketVault, nor can you scan someone else's Chameleon Card during its 10 minute activation period as some have speculated. According to Todd Burger of Chameleon Network:

Credit and debit cards can only be loaded to a person's Pocket Vault while the Pocket Vault is docked to a PC or Mac and the legitimate owner of the Pocket Vault has established a secure Internet session. (The computer and the Pocket Vault actually establish dual secure sessions in parallel on a standard dial-up or better Internet connection with the Pocket Vault website or the website of an authorized Pocket Vault dealer (for example, a major credit card issuing bank). During this session, there is a verification that all cards being loaded are owned by the person doing the loading and are active cards in good standing.
