Short description: 
ELEC FUND TRANSFR-CREDIT CARDS                                             

Synopsis of Bill as introduced:
        Amends the Electronic Fund Transfer Act.  Requires that terminals      
   display a notice of charges and a notice reminding users to take their      
   receipt and to protect their personal identification number;  requires      
   that  receipts given at terminals partially obscure the user's account      
   number that is printed on the receipt. Amends the Illinois Credit Card      
   and Debit Card Act.  With  respect  to  certain  offenses  (including:      
   making  a false written statement for the purpose of procuring a card;      
   receiving another person's card with intent  to  use  it  without  the      
   cardholder's  consent; and other offenses), increases the penalty from      
   a Class A or B misdemeanor to  a  Class  4  felony.   When  a  greater      
   penalty  is  provided  for  an  offense  (for example, for committing,      
   within a 12-month period, an offense with respect to 3 or  more  cards      
   each  issued  to  different  cardholders  other  than  the  offender),      
   increases  the  greater  penalty from a Class A misdemeanor or Class 4      
   felony to a Class 3 felony.
