This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Is your address tied directly to the virtual card? If it is, terrible idea on the CC company's part. If it's not, how did they know it? I'd assume they have a lot more than just the virtual card info.

To my knowledge its not, it was an apple card too which would be a mountain size leak for a large group. Im thinking it was most likely an online vendor for the moment.

Is the virtual card number single use? I've never used one before. If not, maybe another site it was used on just leaked it along with the shipping address. Edit: Oh, that's basically what you assumed. I tend to reply before I read more than one sentence :)
