I'd say the online retailer is the obvious pick. Unless those market traders are secretly running a black market credit card operation on the side. Hmm, now there's an idea...

Traditional market trader. They might not have as much security in place as online retailers.

Online retailers, for sure. Though I heard that one market trader got hit by a swarm of credit card hackers. Crazy stuff!

Agricultural producers? Really? What kind of credit card data are they even dealing with? Seems like a stretch to me.

Traditional market traders also handle a lot of electronic transactions, so they could be at risk too.

I don't know, those mail delivery guys have access to a lot of addresses and packages. Seems like a juicy target for thieves too.

Online retailers handle a ton of credit card data, so they're definitely the most at risk for theft. Easy choice here.

I think traditional market traders may not be as at risk as online retailers because they may not handle as much electronic credit card data.
