Ass-backwards security

RBC Financial Group lets its Visa cardholders check their balances online by entering their 16-digit Visa number in combination with their "Visa identification word".

What's a Visa identification word? Glad you asked! According to their site, it's "not case sensitive, however, it is recommended to utilize upper and lower case letters where possible".

Did that make sense to anyone else? No? Good, me too.
