BofA had a online tool (Flash based I think) to generate and manage virtual CC numbers linked to your real card. When Flash was sunset -- they gave a BS reasoning and shutdown this tool as well whithout making an effort to rebuild / replace. I am surprised there was no big backlash from customers given the increasing online fraud and privacy/security consciousness of banking users. Which (US) banks currently offer this virtual CC feature? I am a customer of three big banks/CC and none of them have this.

I have not used it and it may not be exactly what you want. But I seem to remember hearing PayPal offers a virtual card that can be used online.

Capital One has this feature I believe, I've been to lazy to set it up.
