I run a department store in Bangor, Maine. Today I had a call from a customer whom lost his credit card. I actually found a couple lost credit cards over the last few weeks, so I asked him what the name on his credit card is. He told me he would send a picture of his credit card. Instead, he sent me this:

Hey,

Thanks for checking out if you found my credit card. The credit card looks like this:
💳
Please tell me if you found it, so I can pick it up.

Sent from my iPhone

What is the name of the customer, which is written on his credit card?

His name is

John Appleseed, as explained here
The official Apple artwork for this shows an authorized signature for John Appleseed, with 448 as the security code.
