free virtual card numbers from your real bank
 

I'm trying to use my stealth account to make a purchase on ebay (to start getting feedback before selling).
It seems like all prepaid cards charge money and I have to wait, plus I couldn't find any in France. My new stealth account is in France; I just moved here 2 months ago from the US.
anyway, both my BofA and Citi credit cards allow me to generate virtual cc #'s for making online purchases, can I just use one of these numbers to pay for my stealth account's ebay purchase? or will that link my stealth account to my real account by my address and/or real name?
both accounts are in good standing right now, but I just wanted to nurture a stealth account in case something happens.

Thank you for sharing your wisdom on this!

if they are visa or mastercard, you can use them yes. when you buy though your real name may show on credit at paypal end, unless you are able to change it at your end.

thats the prob with these shopsafe boa vcc cards. you are only producing a new # with your real infos and the address will have to match with AVS making it hard to use as stealth.
