> VISA 4879 5223 6537 9935

I'm curious where that number came from. It passes the Luhn check so it probably isn't just some random number, and has the right first few digits for Visa but doesn't match any of the Visa test card numbers that I happen to know.

Looking up the issuing bank from the first 6 digits gives inconsistent results. Half of the several BIN lookup sites I tried just say it is from the US. The other half say it is from Blom bank in the country of Lebanon.

Googling it gives me a small number of sites about "unlimited credit card numbers that work 2022" which seem quite shady but I can't quit figure out what the heck that are actually trying to accomplish.

Here are those sites: https://www.financegab.com/credit-card/unlimited-credit-card... and https://paisabank.org/unlimited-credit-card-numbers-that-wor...

i have been following up on that and for me too the results where inconclusive.

My bet is, that is a honeypot card.

Oh and by now we are the first result on google for it too :D
