If you think about it...if someone knows your AE number or last name (which in your case its easy), one could even move your seat to a crappy one in the back...
(AE # for olci or last name for manage online bookings online)
If someone gets your credit card information and they make charges to it, it is still the merchant's responsiblity to confirm the card holder is actually making the purchase. How is this different?
