It would be awesome if you deanonymized yourself and wrote it up.

Edit: (I mean from publicly available data, didn't realize how ambiguous that was until I reread it)

Pretty intrigued by this! However, if the data is sold by CC companies, is it truly "public"? Regardless, would you even be able to target an individual without spending lots of money to buy a large batch of "anonymized" spending data?

I guess it would have been better to say "generally available" data.

So anything you could buy would be fine, but no stealing or fraud.
