Engadget has an interesting story of how a couple of UK criminals and a crooked gas station attendant intercepted RFID-enabled smart credit card numbers, then actually flew over to India to make withdrawals. Although they rescinded their story and later said that the cards were "smartcards", not RFID.

Umm, no. Smartcards use radio frequency chips, too. At least the ones I'm aware of. [via Engadget] By the way, a Boing Boing post says it was Sri Lanka, via India, for the scene of the second part of the crime. [Follow the trail of hyperlinks, and this is like a game of "telephone", where information mutates. Scott Carney has the full story. The crooks were Sri Lankan, they went to England for the first part of the crime, and then to India to use the stolen numbers.]
