Signs of Genuine CVV
Check the card's physical appearance. Genuine CVVs are usually embossed and can be felt when running your finger over them.
Look for consistent font and color. The numbers should be clearly legible and match the rest of the card's design.
Compare the CVV to other card details. If the CVV is out of place or seems like a sticker, it may be fake.
Signs of Fake CVV
