Your comment is unclear, and I can't tell if you're talking about any of the above happening in Australia or elsewhere.

In Australia signatures are not considered a valid form of identification for transactions.

It's PIN or nothing.

That's actually not true either. It depends on the card and the issuer. In particular, contactless Amex cards will occasionally fall back to signature.
