And since you can use any zip code or any information, you can avoid certain additional costs as well. permalink fedilink source parent [–] riquisimo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 point 1 month ago (1 child) Can you vouch for this site? I heard of them a long time ago and they're still around which is a good sign. But I still feel wary around a site with a generic name like "privacy dot com" and doubly wary giving out payment information. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Pyro@programming.dev 1 point 1 month ago I've used them a bunch of times over the past few years. I prefer using their virtual cards over using my actual CC for websites I feel sketchy giving my payment information to.
