If you have more than one bank account (which I have) why not use one of them for internet purchasing only and simply go on line and transfer the exact ammount needed to make the purchase. That way, surely, the account would be empty most of the time (except for the few minutes it takes to make the purchase), so the risk of a third party using your bank details would be severely limited.
