There is such a simple to invalidate this kinda of hoax b4 spreading such
nonsense+annoying e-mail -- SEARCH.  Why not just use search engine to
find evidence or disprove of it before spreading any rumors? 

If the sender will just try to search 'Virtual card for you' on this case,
many trustable websites would tell "it's a hoax"!
