Will I get in trouble for doing this?
Hi. So I was on a site and it said I won an iphone 6. I read the comments and it was real buuut I need a credit card to get it and my dad doesn't have one(NO ONE in my family has one). Anyway I came across this site where I can download fake credit card numbers and CVV codes but I don't know if I should download one. Will I get in trouble if I download a number? I really want that Iphone 6.

Maybe give some free advice about: Cell Phones?
To very specifically answer your question regardless if the ad is a scam or not using any credit card information that is not yours is called theft and fraud and yes you can get in very big trouble local and federal best case is the card info won't even work no one is gonna just give you access to free money and worst case is if it did work the info came from a real person and when they track you you will be arrested so don't do it under any circumstance.

You didn't win an iPhone 6.
It's a scam. It's a scam to try and collect credit card numbers, and then sell them to criminals.
The 'fake' credit card numbers you found are probably numbers that were collected by exactly this sort of scam, and are now canceled and no longer any good.
When something looks too good to be true - not only is it probably not true - it's also probably a person trying to scam you.

Hi mate. I have a strong feeling that the iPhone you have won does not exist. I've never seen a genuine source that asked for your credit card details to claim your prize. It's probably just as well that you had not got access to a credit card, since once you entered the details (which is what they want) there'd be no phone in the post, and some big purchases made on that card!! This sounds like a total scam, intended to get card details from people. Don't go near the sites that offer card numbers to download. They almost certainly won't be accepted by any vendor. And think about any site who is offering something which is (of course) illegal. When you click download I reckon you'll get a lot more than you bargained for in terms of viruses, malware, trojans, keyloggers etc. Good way to get a corrupted/locked-up computer, and all your email, messenger, facebook etc id's and passwords stolen. In return for a useless card number (which probably been put on stop, if it ever genuinely existed at all). You haven't been a mug or taken for a fool here. It's not a personal attack. Scams like this are massive right now and still increasing. They're fired out to huge numbers of people hoping, some will be tricked into giving them their card or bank details. Does your site offer a contact phone number or email site for enquiries? If so call it, saying you have no credit card? Is the card entry section flagged as a 'secure' or 'trusted' site? Is the address https/ (not just http/)? Are there icons for the names and details of the payment agency who will process it? Can you click on them to 'read the certificates'? I'll bet you anything the answer to any of these questions is 'NO'. And never type a card number in anywhere unless the answers are all 'YES' mate.

A company will not send you anything if the number you put in is fake. If its a list of stolen debit or credit card numbers, using a card thats not yours is a crime. No one will give you for free a stolen card number. If I were you, i'd earn myself the phone the right way, bu earning money. If you're too young to work a regular job yet, it doesnt matter. Many a young child or teen has found ways to earn money, save it up and buy things with it. As a teen, I babysat and with my money bought my own bike and since parents were broke, bought as a gift one for my younger sister, bought my own clothes, etc..... I have heard a story of two sisters still in grade school who were making lots of money once word got around. What they did is what pet owners hate doing, scooping up their pets poop in the yard. People with pets want to be able to walk in their yards without having to sidestep carefully, hunting for hidden poop. Two little girls, earning incredible amounts of money with more customers than they had time to do the work. If they can do something to earn money, so can you. Do not turn to a life of crime by obtaining things illegally. Its just a short walk from that to shop lifting and ending in juvie hall.
