Item 6 - well there is this thing called Credit Card Protection insurance offered by third party and some promoted jointly with the card issuer but it is not free. I can't remember, but there is one premium or platinum credit card that do offer 0 liability against fraud case.

From my experience, Maybank Visa or MasterCard not bad as you will get a One Time Password by sms. Same for RHB Debit Card. AMEX the worst security feature.  I think your UOB card should be the same(?) So, if you ask me, if you kiasu like me, get a Debit card for online transaction where you can control the damage, i.e. no money in account, nothing to loose, haha.

As for cash back card, look into Maybank 2 Cards or for petrol UOB One Card. Check out my reply to klcc212 and click on the cash back link.
