At least (for now - who knows what delights Trump's brigade has in store?) such fraud falls on the banks, for the most part, though that's been shifting subtly toward retailers.
I wonder if systems like Apple Pay are (for now) more secure? Perhaps a little trickier to intercept, but the fact they use tokens generated at the time, rather than the actual card credentials, might reduce the profile, but I'm absolutely no cryptobunny.
Closest I've come, so far, was back around 1999, when I had a charge attempted for something like $2k, using details that looked as if they'd come from a crumpled carbon - the address was present, but not quite correct. The bank took care of everything, so, no biggie. =:/
