...that said plenty of people are dumb enough to do the same with online banking details so perhaps your suggestion does warrant further thought!
I am sure Lyndsay and her team have a policy on this, but it cannot be long before a scam emerges.
URLs like
www.baworldoffers.com, wwww.baexecutiveclub.com
www.baec.com would certainly fool many who are not that familiar with BA and its workings - I think the Executive Club should make people aware of these scams in the way that banks do, drawing attention to potential frauds and educating the consumer so they are fully aware of the risks.
I also think some sort of tertiary security for online transactions (say random numbers from your registered telephone number?).
Now I think about it, I am amazed a scam hasn't happened already!
