- ceejayoz 9y agoData brokers like Experian can tie that number to the rest of your profile. Even something like "this is an AMEX" can give you some info.
- eli 9y agoWhere you're coming from and and going to. Your name and home address. It doesn't need to be 100% perfect in all cases to be useful.
- gruez 9y agothat doesn't answer the question, which is about credit cards.
- eli 9y agoThen I don't understand the question, but you can probably make pretty decent guesses about a person's income just by looking at the type of credit card and the issuing bank. And definitely if you include credit card billing address. There's tons of databases that translate a zip+4 to a median household income.
- dboreham 9y agoI don't know about temporary card numbers, which afaik don't exist where I live but : the data-industrial complex indexes people by credit card numbers so given the number you can get a full profile. Income, etc.
