US promos while in the UK

Does anybody know whether I would be able to use (sign-up) for US credit card promotions while NOT living in the US (and the UK instead)? Few clarifications:
- I'm currently in the US on work visa (i.e. not a resident or green card holder)
- I have social security number (and I assume I will keep it even if I move to the UK)
- I will be able to use my current US address even if I move to the UK (my friend will be still living in the place so he could forward me any correspondence)
- I already have 6+ US-issued credit cards and decent credit score (~750)
- My new employer would be UK-based company

In other words, how would credit card companies know that I am not in the US? I could use my social security, US address and will have decent income. Am I missing anything?

Thank you!
