  • both users and service providers who use such prepaid cards or make available, find that an abuse such prepaid cards with relatively little Effort and at least not recognizable to laypeople is. The abuse is particularly that unauthorized People remove the scratch layer for knowledge to get from the hidden string and then use the prepaid card for their purposes. After the credit was used up a new scratch layer applied so that the credit card after made an intact impression on the outside. This pre-emptied prepaid cards were sent to good faith Users sold, who then found that the Credit card contained no credit.
  • a security cover sticker of the beginning mentioned type to create the disadvantages set out avoiding and ensuring that any manipulation, in particular every attempt to gain knowledge the string under the cover sticker by lifting the sticker or by removing the Scratch layer clearly and also for laypersons at first Is recognizable and in the manufacture and Handbabung simplified, but against abuse are secured.
  • the security cover sticker according to the invention thus offers on the one hand a high level of security against manipulation with the purpose of unauthorized access the string underneath and the other a high level of security against unauthorized copying.
  • a high level of security for both users such cards as well as for the service providers who spend those cards, reached.
  • the security cover sticker especially ensures that a one time Take off is visually particularly clearly recognizable, without affecting the surface of the card on which the cover sticker is appropriate, a special coloring and that, on the other hand, the one on the card String after removing the scratch card layer remains clearly recognizable.
  • the adhesive layer can also consist of a non-transparent material; if the Adhesive layer also on the underside of the Field of the film layer is applied, the adhesive layer be transparent to the ones on the card String from above after rubbing off the Scratch lacquer layer through the film layer and the adhesive layer to be able to read through.
  • the safety cover sticker on the top information in an immediately visible color, especially a sequential sticker number, printed in numbers and / or as a barcode his. This also creates the opportunity certain cards and certain security cover stickers assign them to each other and subsequently determine whether the one found by the authorized user of the card Cover stickers actually go with this Card heard.
  • the scratch-off layer is formed by a metallic effect color.
  • a metallic effect color has a particularly strong covering effect and prevents the passage of light with which the string could be made recognizable.
  • An additional aggravation of unauthorized access the string can be achieved by that in a direct contrast to the scratch paint layer visible color applied printed image Image from randomly distributed fragments of characters and / or meandering lines and / or the like Pattern is.
  • Particularly suitable plastic materials for education the film layer are specified in claim 6.
  • the safety cover sticker to facilitate and automated attachment is provided, that the security masking sticker is attached before it is attached on a prepaid card or similar document individually or in pairs on a release paper, in particular Silicone liner, is arranged detachably adhesive.

  • a security cover sticker shown in Figure 1 especially for covering one on a prepaid card, like a cell phone calling card, attached string, has a rectangular outline.
  • the supporting part of the cover sticker 1 forms a Foil layer 2 made of a transparent plastic.
  • the surface of the film layer 2 is in two surface areas 2 ', 2' 'of different properties divided, the area 2 'frame-like a middle field 2' ' surrounds.
  • a scratch-off lacquer layer 20 is applied, the middle field 2 '' plus a small one Encore and opaque, but manual is easily removed by rubbing.
  • the scratch-off layer 20 is with only under UV light visible color and / or with a hue the scratch card layer 20 contrasting immediately visible color (each) a printed image in the form of graphic Patterns and / or characters applied, what in figure 1 is not shown for reasons of clarity.
  • the security cover sticker 1 according to FIG. 1 is together with other cover stickers, not shown here 1 detachable on a strip of release paper 4 adhered, which makes the cover sticker 1 easy be held releasably until they are in place of use lifted from the release paper 4 and on a credit card or the like document can be attached.
  • the layer structure of the security cover sticker is shown in FIG 1 from Figure 1 along the section line II-II clearly, the layer thicknesses in the drawing are exaggerated to make them recognizable to promote. In reality, the total thickness is the cover sticker 1 (without release paper) below 100 ⁇ m.

  • the underside of the film layer 2 is in the frame-shaped Area 2 'with a print image of void particles 21 provided, the print image characters or numbers or can represent any pattern.
  • a layer of paint downwards 22 some of which are directly on the underside of the film layer 2 and partly on the underside of the void particles 21 is liable.
  • the liability is between the bottom the film layer 2 and the color layer 22 strong while the adhesion between the bottom of the film layer 2 and the void particles 21 is weak.
  • Figure 3 shows the security cover sticker 1 in one second cross section, now along the line III-III in Figure 1, through the middle field 2 '' of the film layer 2 runs.
  • Figure 3 are in No void particles 21 are provided in the area of the field 2 ′′; the color layer 22 is also left out here.
  • the safety cover sticker 1 In the area of field 2 '' is the safety cover sticker 1 after removal of the scratch coating layer 20 and with it of the printed image 24, 25 transparent, as is the case for the is initially required.

  • Unauthorized reading of string 50 could either by removing the scratch coating layer 20 and again Apply a layer of scratch paint or by complete Lift off the safety cover sticker 1 and again Attachment done. If in the first way and how a manipulation would be carried out not only the scratch paint layer 20, but also that on top of it applied print image 24, 25 from a not immediately visible UV color and / or a contrasting, immediately visible color are restored, what only with a very high technical effort would be feasible and thus largely excluded in practice is. If in the second way an unauthorized person is aware of the string 50 should have obtained this is due to the result of the take off of the cover sticker 1, permanently recognizable, irreversible optical change to its frame-shaped Area 2 'recognizable.
  • the color layer 22 destroyed in itself, this destruction by a new one Pressing on the cover sticker 1 does not undo can be made, but rather to the outside remains recognizable through the film layer 2.
