ePassporte Virtual Visa

However, from time to time you may wish to make a purchase on the Internet from a merchant who perhaps can provide unusual or exotic merchandise, but whom you're unfamiliar with and reluctant to give your credit card information to.  A typical example might be for payment of an item found through an online auction service.

Here is where ePassporte Virtual Visa can ease your concern.  This completely on-line service allows you to transfer money from your regular plastic credit card  (other transfer methods are available too) to your "Virtual" Visa Card Number.  Of course, normally you wouldn't leave more than roughly the amount you're about to spend in this account.  That's just in case the card # fell into the wrong hands, the scammer wouldn't be able to get an approval.  Remember, ePassporte functions exactly as a tradtional credit card with its own special credit card #, expiration date and CVV2 number.  However, no one knows the unique nature of the protection this virtual card affords except you!

Credit card fraud is a major problem (FYI, Amazon has protective measures in place which makes it one of the safest merchants to make a credit purchase with) but credit card fraud is NOT just confined to online purchases.  In fact, we had a card we used strictly for a balance transfer.  We had shredded the actual card when it arrived so we wouldn't use it for purchases.  Surprised were we to find upon receiving a statement later that year that the balance we had been paying off had gone UP by over $2000.00.  Someone had taken a nice round trip plane ride within Europe along with a stay at a First Class Spa while we were working hard on our business here in NJ!  Needless to say the charge was taken right off by our Charge Card company, but this first-hand experience of being victimized proves that credit card fraud does not happen only when using your Credit Card on the Internet.  In fact, in our case, no one was ever able to explain how our card # had been compromised when it had never been used at all except for that initial balance transfer.

So check out ePassporte Virtual Visa.  A small fee is charged each time you "load" it from your regular credit card, but there are no other activation or hidden fees, no running to a store to buy the card.  Everything happens in the comfort of your home!.

Of course you enjoy the same protections for your purchases that you would receive from any traditional credit card.  ePassporte comes highly recommended from us and millions of other savvy shoppers who are now using this service.
