It doesn’t seem to be the case, but it would be interesting if there were CC numbers that were meant to be used in movies, similar to how 555-XXXX phone numbers are never real.

There’s numbers for testing CC software.

There’s some sample numbers for testing payment applications like stripe.
Visa: 4242424242424242 Mastercard: 5555555555554444 Discover: 6011000990139424 Amex: 371449635398431

Visa was set up by a nerd

Me, reading Amex: Ammex! No, wait… Ay-mex! Oh, it’s American Express.

Too bad the Visa and Mastercard ones are so obviously fake.

Why is it “too bad” if they’re used for testing?

Because it would be nice to have a card number that looked plausible that could be used in movies. Imagine if every phone number in a movie had to be (555) 555-5555. It would break your suspension of disbelief.
