BriansClub, an Online “Carding Store,” Has Been Hacked
Earlier this year, BriansClub, an online “carding store” that specializes in selling stolen payment card information, was hacked. KrebsOnSecurity, a security research firm, first reported on the data breach. It’s estimated that BriansClub had $414 million worth of stolen credit card details for sale. However, it is still unclear who was behind the hack.
BriansClub sells stolen credit and debit card data for online fraud. The website has a polished interface, including clear sections and detailed information. It offers a lottery and discounts for regular customers. Users can also approve larger transactions and change their credit card PINs. It also accepts Bitcoin and Dash, two cryptocurrencies that can be used to make purchases. BriansClub estimates that a cardholder will lose $500 for each card that is compromised.
BriansClub has a record of selling 9.1 million stolen credit cards...
