CreditCardChecker Version 2.0 for OpenStep Enterprise Window NT by Eric Tremblay (ericet@cam.org) Submitted to: ftp://next-ftp.peak.org/pub/openstep/submissions Should end up in: ftp://next-ftp.peak.org/pub/openstep/windows/apps/financial Intro: ====== CreditCardChecker is an application that will verify the checksum of credit card numbers for various credit cards. It was made to give everyone another safety tool to fight fraud. This OpenStep application is based on the cc_cksum.c program that appeared in the 2600 magazine. (Which issue? I don't know...) All credit card numbers have a checksum number which permits you to verify if the number actually makes sense. Meaning if the number that you have is a possible number. Even if the number passes the checksum test it does not mean it's an actual valid number. So if you can, please verify with the proper authorities for the validity of the number. If you cannot, hopefully this application will help you a bit, but don't count on it...
