On the subject of banks, I would refuse to pay $5 to $25 per transaction to combat fraud, that's too high. Why don't banks just implement multi-factor authentication. As in username (1), password (2), security question (3) and a security dongle (4). I realize that from a technical standpoint it is not simple nor is it inexpensive, but if it will combat fraud shouldn't it be implemented?
It should be noted that this is a requirement (can't remember if it's FDIC who whom) as of the end of last year. If your bank doesn't have some sort of multi-factor authentication, they are out of compliance.
