"Credit Carding"
|
|
|
|
First of all, for those of you who do not know exactly what
|
|
carding is, well, it is the illegal use of credit cards for the
|
|
purchase of items. This can be very useful. Especially when you don't
|
|
have all the money you'd like. This file is of course not for the
|
|
professional "carder", but for the beginner who does not know how to
|
|
obtain or use a credit card to his/her advantage. Now you get a
|
|
history lesson, as usual in my files...
|
|
|
|
When MasterCharge first came out with the Credit Card, there were
|
|
three secrets that they had. And, as usual, people (phreaks!)found out
|
|
about them. These are the Account Number, the Signature Panel, and the
|
|
Magnetic Strip. Most of the codes for things have anywhere from 4-10
|
|
digits, making quite a few million possible combinations of numbers.
|
|
Credit cards have 16-20 digits. They aren't needed, but they make it
|
|
hard to hack a good code. MasterCharge and Visa both have about 70
|
|
million card holders, each with a unique number. Eight digits would
|
|
give you 100 million combinations, morethan enough for all the card
|
|
holders. 9 digits gives us one billion different numbers, and 13 is 10
|
|
TRILLION numbers.You can figure out the rest. Visa has about 13 digits in
|
|
its code, but out of 10 trillion numbers, only 65 million are working
|
|
accounts. That may sound like a lot, but it isn't. Then, there is
|
|
MasterCharge. Of the quintillions of possible accounts, only 11 million
|
|
work. The fake accounts are used, among other things, to hold upon TV for
|
|
advertisements. Guessing account numbers is just plainly not practical.
|
|
So, the first thing you have to do is obtain a card # from somewhere.
|
|
The best way is to go to your local supermarket or any store that uses
|
|
credit cards. Then, you watch them take out the trash. After they have
|
|
taken the trash out then you go over when the coast is clear and search
|
|
through their trash.
|
|
|
|
I know that it can get messy, but don't complain, just think
|
|
of the nice things that you will be able to get out of it in the
|
|
future. You are looking for carbons that they run the cards through.
|
|
Then, you take those home and write down the name, card number, and
|
|
the expiration date and the type of card that it is (Mastercharge,
|
|
Visa, American Express,etc.). You make sure that you have cards with
|
|
a good date on it.
|
|
|
|
Next comes the good part, the ordering. All you do when ordering
|
|
is that you call up a mailorder and then you tell them what you want
|
|
and your card number, and then they will ask for the place to send it
|
|
to.
|
|
|
|
Here comes the hardest part. Here are some of your options of
|
|
places to send it:
|
|
|
|
1. To a vacant house, apartment.
|
|
2. To a friend that will deny it ever arrived when they inquire about
|
|
it.
|
|
3. To someone's house that you do not know.
|
|
|
|
Let's examine these options in detail:
|
|
|
|
1. Sending to a vacant house or apartment. This is done by giving the
|
|
address of the vacant house/apartment. Then, when it arrives, the
|
|
deliveryman will leave it on the front porch or in the bushes.Then you
|
|
just go by the house and pick it up. You must take into account the
|
|
possibility that someone may moved into the house/apartment before it
|
|
gets delivered.
|
|
|
|
2. Sending to a friend and having him deny that it arrived. You tell
|
|
your friend to pick up the packages when they arive at his/her house
|
|
and then give them to you. Then, when the fuzz comes along to grab
|
|
the guy who it got sent to, your friend (and parents who never saw him
|
|
get it) will deny it. The fuzz won't mess with them any more!
|
|
|
|
3. Ok, you find some nice older people that don't know you and that
|
|
you don't live too closely to. Then, you order the stuff you want and
|
|
send it to that house. You call the people and make up a sad story
|
|
about how the company got the wrong address and they already sent it.
|
|
Ask to pick it up when it arrives, making sure not to give them your
|
|
real name, address, phone number, etc... The next way of obtaining a
|
|
credit card is to get it from an elite board. This is not the best
|
|
way, since this way the card is usually over drawn by the time you get
|
|
it, not to mention that not many boards would touch credit cards with
|
|
a ten-foot pole because they are too dangerous to mess with...
|
|
|
|
Another way to card and my favorite is to use the T.R.W. credit
|
|
information system. This is only if you have a good password, if you
|
|
do not or do not have a file explaining it do not call it. They DO
|
|
trace. A TRW numberis (619)-741-6016. The most fun way to get a card
|
|
number is to simply ask the person. All you need to know is their
|
|
bank. Simply call up on the fone, and whip into a quick masquerade of
|
|
a bank official:
|
|
|
|
Victim: Hello?
|
|
|
|
You: This is First National Security and Trust Loan Bank. We are
|
|
calling to notify you that your Visa credit limit has been raised
|
|
to one thousand dollars.
|
|
|
|
Victim: But...but...My limit used to be 100,000 dollars! There must be
|
|
some mistake!
|
|
|
|
You: No, I'm afraid not. Unless... there could have been a mistake in
|
|
the computer...do you have your card handy? I'll run a check on
|
|
the number.
|
|
|
|
Victim <worried>: I'll go get it!
|
|
|
|
And, you get the number. Phun, huh? Have fun, but BE CAREFUL. If you
|
|
get caught, forget where you read this!
