Yes, under certain circumstances, particularly if you actually intend to act as Executor and are consenting to your brother's use of the card.

Feel free to call me to discuss this further. I won't charge for the phone call.

As Executor you have a fiduciary duty to protect the estate. Feel free to call but cancelling the credit card would be a good first step. Feel free to visit www.legacylaws.com and call for a free consultation.
