It is not paranoia when the evidence points to epass facilitating theft either through direct actions or through weak security.

In a free world you have the option of securing your money any way that you see fit. You can trust it ti epass or you can put it in a paper bag. In my opinion trusting it to epass is as secure as puttin your wallet in the toe of your shoe on the beach. It will onlt be a matter of time before someone steals your shoes AND your money.
Ya man Im a n00b and I dont know anyone in this industry. Like I said - you've made your free world choice - and I still think you're being paranoid.

I can understand your situation and I tihnk it's kinda like this: Let's say there is a huge increase in the number of people getting hit by buses.. let's say from 1 / 100000 street crossings to 1 / 20000. You think "Hey, that's ok, the chances I'll get hit by a bus are still crazy low". Then your best friend gets hit by a bus and you say "Wow, Im never crossing the street again, it's too risky".
