AmEx definitely takes phone orders.  A few months back, somebody got
hold of my husband's card number (off a carbon, I guess, now we're
very careful about that!).  They charged $800 of balloons and flowers
through mail-orders!  (I believe, though, that except for these things
and maybe a few others, anything you mail-order has to be sent to
your home address.)
