No two active cards can have the same number.<\/div>\n<div class=\"ace-line ace-line old-record-id-K7hPdHn9boQueSxnTdzlYXGHgZb\"><strong>Q2: Can a valid-looking credit card number still be fake?<\/strong><\/div>\n<div class=\"ace-line ace-line old-record-id-K7hPdHn9boQueSxnTdzlYXGHgZb\">Absolutely. While a number may pass the Luhn check and follow proper formatting, it can still be fraudulent if it's not issued by a legitimate provider. Always verify via official channels or BIN checkers.<\/div>\n<div class=\"ace-line ace-line old-record-id-Y5FhdqAVVooXSgxpD4vl13Trgyc\"><strong>Q3: Why should I use a virtual card instead of my physical card?<\/strong><\/div>\n<div class=\"ace-line ace-line old-record-id-Y5FhdqAVVooXSgxpD4vl13Trgyc\">Virtual cards like those from Buvei mask your real card number during online transactions. This reduces exposure in case of a data breach and helps prevent recurring charges or unauthorized renewals.<\/div>\n<div class=\"ace-line ace-line old-record-id-EaSNdF852ojQWExWIkElBse3gCx\"><strong>Q4: What if my credit card number is stolen online?<\/strong><\/div>\n<div class=\"ace-line ace-line old-record-id-EaSNdF852ojQWExWIkElBse3gCx\">You should immediately freeze or cancel the card. Buvei virtual cards let you delete or replace a card with one click, without compromising your main account or needing to reissue your physical card.<\/div>\n<div class=\"ace-line ace-line old-record-id-RTQUddJqRo6PMzxLC7MlLepOgLp\"><strong>Q5: Do virtual cards work for subscriptions and marketplaces like Amazon or AliExpress?<\/strong><\/div>\n<div class=\"ace-line ace-line old-record-id-RTQUddJqRo6PMzxLC7MlLepOgLp\">Yes.
