Postal Letter

Why do they ask to look at your credit card when paying at the postal office?

When I pay by credit card at the post office, they ask to look at the credit card, but don't even look at your ID. So I know they are not checking if it matches. At first I thought the person forgot, but this happened several times now, and just at the post office. It's not signed. They just look at the front.
