US Passports RFID

RFID are Radio Frequency ID chips. America is planning to place them into american passports so that when they are at airports customs can scan their passports from a near distance using special radio recievers.
However there is a problem that might occur, if customs are scanign the cards they will be able to see a lot of information about the persons identity. this could spark up a lot of crime as people might be able to get the technology that the custom officers use and could steal information from peoples passports.
