Banking on Badb in the Underweb
Summary: Badb.su, an underground carding shop borrowing the name of alleged CarderPlanet founder Vladislav Horohorin, sold stolen American Express and Discover accounts for $2.50 to $3 each and MasterCard and Visa accounts for $2 to $3. The site also sold verified PayPal and eBay accounts, priced eBay accounts by feedback score at $2 for fewer than 75 points and $5 and up for more, and accepted payment only in virtual currencies such as Liberty Reserve and WebMoney.
What's compelling: Stolen U.S. card numbers trading at $2 to $3 apiece, and PayPal accounts at 2 to 10 percent of their balance, set a concrete price on the fraud loss and account takeover risk sitting behind every card and PayPal login your customers hold.
