THERE ARE ONE HUNDERED MILLION POSIBLE COMBINATIONS OF EIGHT DIGITS, FROM 00000000 TO 99999999. SO EIGHT DIGITS WOULD BE ENUF. TO ALLOW FER FUTURE GROWTH, VISA COULD HAVE 9 DIDIGTS-ENUF FER ONE BILLION DIFFER NUMBERS!
IN FACT, A VISA CARD HAS 13 DIGITS AND SOMETIMES EVEN MORE. AN AMERICAN EXPRESS HAS 15 DIGITS. DINERS CLUB CARDS HAVE 14. CARTE BLANCHE HAS 10. THEY ARE OBVOUSLY NOT EXPECTING BILLIONS OF CARD OWNERS WITH THOSE DIGITS. BUT ALL THE EXTRA ONES ARE ONLY A SECRUITY DEVICE. I MEAN IF THEY WERE 4 DIGITS EACH MOST PEOPLE WOULD HAVE NO PROBLEM GETTING THEMSELVES 3232 FAKE CREDIT CARDS!
SAY YER VISA NUMBER IS 4321 876 132 564. EACH PURCHASE MUST BE ENTERD FROM A SALES SLIP. THE ACCOUNT NUMBER TAGS YER PURCHASE TO YER ACCOUNT. SOMETIMES THE SALES PEOPLE GET BORED AND ENTER THE WRONG NUMBER. THERE ARE 10 TRILLION POSSIBLE 13 DIGIT VISA NUMBERS. ONLY ABOUT 65 MILLION OF THOSE ARE WORKING ACCOUNTS! WHICH MEANS IT IS VERY HARD TO FIND ONE. THOSE ARE SLIM ODDS TO FIND THE NUMBER YOU COULD FILL UP A BOOK FULL OF 13 DIGIT NUMBERS. STILL YOU WOULD NOT DUPLICATE A VISA ACCOUNT NUMBER.
THEN WE HAVE MASTERCARD OF THE QUADRILLION POSSIBLE COMBOS ONLY ABOUT 11 MILLION ARE ACTIVE ACCOUNTS. AMONG OTHER THINGS, THAT MAKES IT POSSIBLE FER THEM TV, RADIO AND OTHER ADS TO INVITE CARD HOLDERS TO CALL UP AND ORDER. HOW CAN THEY BE SURE THE GUY EVEN HAS A CARD?
THEY MUST BASE THERE CONFIDENCE ON THE SECURTIY OF THE KREDT-KARD #ERING SYSTEM. IF SOMEONE CALLS UP EVEN MAKING SURE TO USE THE RIGHT NUMBER OF DIGITS THE NUMBER WILL SURLEY NOT EXIST. TO BE PRACTICAL THE ONLY WAY TO GET A CREDIT CARD NUMBER IS TO GET IT RIGHT OFF THE PLASTIC CARD.
SO HOW DO I GET THE CREDIT CARD NUMBERS YOU ASK? THERE ARE TWO VERY EASY WAYS THAT YOU CAN USE ANYTIME, ONE IS GETTING IT OFF THE OLD COPY THAT WUZ RUN OFF IN THE STORE, SO IF THEY DONT THROW THE COPYS AWAY PICK THEM UP AND ITS YERS..THEN YOU CAN ALSO DO THIS VERY SIMPLE TRICK OVER THE PHONE:
YOU: THIS IS BANK 1. WE ARE CALLING TO TELL YOU THAT THE CREDIT LIMIT ON YER MASTERCARD HAS BEEN RAISED TO TWELVE HUNDRED DOLLARS.
PERSON: BUT MY LIMIT HAS ALWAYS BEEN 10,000 DOLLARS!!!
YOU: HMMM.. THERE MUST BE SOME ERR OR PROBLEM IN THE COMPUTERS. DO YOU HAVE YOUR CARD HANDY? COULD YOU READ OFF THE NUMBER?
RIGHT THERE THE PERSON IS VERY WORRIED AND WANTS HIS LIMIT BACK SO OF COURSE HE GIVES YOU THE NUMBER.
THE SIGNATURE PANEL AND MAGNETIC STRIP WILL BE COVERD IN LATER VOLUMES.
