Then you family would be in trouble, unless the theif was caught, even so recouping any damage done is unlikely. Just like the other 2000+ families who's CC numbers got stolen.

trust me any cards stolen will NOT have to pay the charges that go through. and they will be tracking down the hackers. Its a goverment site.

Unless the site takes responsibility for that I am not sure. Someone has to pay for it.
