If you have the same name, possibly. But as he is dead, you may also just as easily be accused of identity theft. I think a better question for you to ask yourself is why you would want to obtain a credit card under his name? If it is because you do not have good credit, then take a moment and contact someone who can help you repair your credit. If it is because you hope that you can charge items and not have to pay the bill because your grandfather has passed, then you are committing fraud.
Fraud is not a victimless or faceless crime, as everyone pays for the amount of merchandise stolen this way.
Good luck |

Can you? You can try.
Just realize using someone else's information to receive a credit card is fraud in every state and country. Depending on how you apply for the card it could also be wire fraud. if you use the card to purchase anything, there will be additional potential charges for every single transaction.
Would your grandfather mind you committing multiple felonies? |

If he didn't mind helping you, then why didn't get a you a credit before he died? Using his for your gain? I guess you didn't really love him, did you, or you wouldn't even think about something like this. |

uh no...thats fraud, plus it will show on his credit report that he is deceased so they probably won't grant you credit anyway. |

You are a crook, you should not even think of it. Your grand father may come back from his grave to take you with him so you won't disgrace him and his family name. Shame on you to even think of doing harm to your beloved grand father. Ask yourself, what are you thinking! Why don't you just walk into the police station and tell them you are thinking about this nonsense. |

Regardless if your grandfather (or whoever) supports this idea, you will be found out, eventually. public records and alerts to the social security will see that a dead person is buying things.
Identity theft by security a credit card in someone else's name and using it yourself, which is a felony and punishable up to 20 yrs in prison.
Suit yourself. |
