Russian Govt. Continues Carding Shop Crackdown
Summary: Russian authorities seized the domains of carding shops Trump's Dumps, Ferum Shop, Sky-Fraud and UAS on Feb. 7 and 8, replacing them with a Department K message asking, "Which one of you is next?" TASS reported six Russian men charged with "the illegal circulation of means of payment," and Flashpoint found all four seized domains were registered and hosted through the company of one of them, Artem Zaitsev of Get-net LLC.
Why it matters: Gemini Advisory estimates Ferum Shop and Trump's Dumps cumulatively added over 64 million compromised payment cards in five years, with administrators likely earning $86 million to $129 million - and analyst Stas Alforov expects the stolen-card supply to persist as reseller shops ramp up with their own vendors.
