I just realized that's an excellent opportunity for "reverse phishing:" you can mangle the first 4 digits of your card [or make one up wholesale] and if they say "thank you, sir" you know they are fake. The real bank will spot that mistake instantly since that prefix is per financial institution

They know about bank prefixes and will ask you to check the number again.
