Title: How to buy a stolen credit card
Post by: grnidone on June 17, 2011, 05:25:08 PM
I feel stupid I didn't think this was done, but I didn't. 

QuoteInside the shop, different credit cards sell for different prices — platinum cards are $35; corporate cards, $45. It's more expensive for cards with higher credit limits.

So you pick and choose a basket of numbers. Criminals usually buy these things in bulk, in case the credit cards get canceled. But a few of them should work.

ouch...


thats why we only deliver to the card holder.  Amazing how many people get narked with that.  we will deliver to a business, but always check that too.

Interesting to hear how you get them.  Like the reference system :)

I love the formality of the system.  Sounds nicely thought out to be honest.  Disappointed that the fraud community falls in the the same design cliches as the hack/warez brigade though. 

A similar site was recently taken down - being operated from quite close to me here.  Always had the hunch that I had spoken to the guy.

When I see a new post in this thread, I'm always half expecting to click and find a powerpoint presentation or webinar!
