| 366030 | 2005-06-22 03:57:00 | Got this site via a story from the NY Times (www.nytimes.com) (registration rqd, but a very very good site), in view of the report of the theft of a very large number of credit card details from the last six months from an aggregator in the US. This is the type of place where stolen credit card numbers and details are fenced - it is really quite elaborate, structured and no doubt very profitable. Have a look around the board and see the crazy things going on in there. Read the very good story in the NY Times - it quotes the FBI saying this sort of thing is impossible to stop. No wonder my credit card fees are so bloody high... |
