    I want a virtual credit card so I can sign up for trials. I hate putting my card number in. Some sites don't offer a pay offer via paypal. Do you know where I can get a free virtual credit card info? PLZ don't say via your bank

    Thanks

    simmaster23000 is correct. You can create VCC numbers through Paypal but I'm pretty sure you have to install their browser plugin first. When you've logged into Paypal, there should be a link to it on the left side of the screen or you can search their FAQ for a link. I'm using Firefox and the plugin works fine for me but I would assume you can also install it on IE.

    Once the plugin is set up and ready to go, just click the arrow next to the big blue "P" that's now on your browser bar and you'll get an option to "Generate Secure Card". If you select it you'll be given a VCC number. I believe it stays active for a certain amount of time after it's generated but you can always cancel it right after you've used it for what you need. To my knowledge there's no limit to the number you can generate but I've only used it once or twice so I can't say for sure.

    Hope that helped.
