Depending on exact circumstances it could be sections 4,6,7 or 25 or 26. The sections are very broad to try and cover as many things as possible.

The Terms and Conditions of your contract with the Credit Card company would also come into it. PIN provisions are especially annoying when someone gets both and you are then liable for the money they steal!
