Credit card with John Appleseed

I tried to buy something online. When the auto fill wanted to show me my credit cards, a random credit number appeared from China union pay. Name was John Appleseed on the info.

i know about the John Appleseed stuff on apple keynotes and such .... but why did I never see that thing before ? Why China union pay ? I’m kinda very concerned about a China union pay just showing up on my phone out of nowhere ... and why only me and nobody else talks about it on any website/forums/etc ?? Thank you for your help to know if there is any issue about it or simply a confirmation that it is just a “joke” from apple !

Please answer the question! Why is the name John Appleseed and a credit card number listed in our iPhones? Was this an error? Or has the Apple platform been compromised?? We demand answers! If not, We will go to the media or maybe even to the competition for answers.

That’s good to know that I’m not the only one. Hoping there would be an actual real answer to this ...
