There are several uncomplicated ways to identify the authenticity of a credit card:
1. Look at the back of the credit card. There is usually a customer service number of the credit card company on the back of the credit card. Citizens can call it. If the system prompts that the card number is invalid, it means that it is a counterfeit card.
2. Look at the plastic film. The surface of the real card is smooth and the card material is relatively elastic. When the card is illuminated by a purple light, the bank logo or the name of the card issuer will appear, which is a laser anti-counterfeiting label; the surface of the counterfeit card is rough, the color is easy to fall off, and the negative film generally has no anti-counterfeiting design.
3. Look at the printing. The color of the real card is bright and bright, the words are clear at a glance, and the stripes on the card are neatly arranged; the words on the fake card are usually blurred, the color is uneven, and the stripes on the card are not neat, making the overall look very uncoordinated.
4. Look at the imprint. The uppercase English letters of the real card number are neat and orderly; the imprinted number of the fake card is not neat or the English letters are different in size, and some of the old card numbers that have been altered can even be faintly visible.
