Credit card numbers should be way down on your list of info to protect. They're easy to change and the consequences of a compromise are small (you're not liable for any fraudulent transactions as long as you're paying the least bit attention). Worry about your checking account number and other info, but not your card numbers.

In my case, the credit card was the most important piece of data to protect.

However I just realized that the credit card might be the only legitimate piece of data that they have left to verify against.
