The Art of Stealing Fingerprints
FingerPrint Theft
So what’s the problem? People worry about the security. Once some one has stolen your fingerprint you can’t replace it like you can a credit card, although this kindtheft is difficult to do. In the extreme scenario there has been a news report of a criminal chopping off a car owners finger to gain entry to his expensive car! So good or not? Its up for you to decide.
