I thought that it looked overly complicated for little reward.

OK most people might tick "don't use for gambling/adult site" but how many
people are going to say "never use for buying alcohol or international
purchases"? Think about the inconvenience of not being able to put a bottle
of beer in your supermarket shopping?

And as for "never to deliver overseas" most dealers aren't offering this in
the first place (as if they do it's at their risk).

My suggestion would be to have a reference that changes every time the
card is used. Therefore fraudsters would need more than the
information on the card.

That's the point of two-factor authorisation such as now starting to be
used for online banking.
