Google will unveil a mobile payment service on Thursday in New York, according to a recent Bloomberg report. This will be available on Android smartphones from Sprint Nextel. The service will let Android smartphone owners with the NFC feature enabled pay for goods and redeem coupons through their handsets. Google will roll out the service in New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago and Washington, D.C., according to the report. Google did not respond to requests for comment by press time.
So I am waiting for the whole list of security issues with this payment system. You know their will be some. Google is notorious for being lax on security and fixing it when people complain.
Sorry, but I don't trust Google for this.
