When the iPhone was scheduled for release in Australia, Optus (Arguably the second largest carrier in Australia) launched a dedicated website where potential customers could pay a $100 deposit to register their interest in the iPhone. You were prompted to complete a form, including providing Optus with your credit card to make pay the deposit. I shit you not, the form *wasn't* encrypted. To this day, I wonder how many clueless individuals actually completed the form? The offer finished a few days after I first noticed it.
