Party Like a Russian, Carder’s Edition
Summary: KrebsOnSecurity published an animated advertisement found in the cybercrime underground promoting a credit card fraud shop, whose name and domain names were withheld and pixelated to avoid further promoting it. The post compares the commercial to slick ads tied to Vladislav "BadB" Horohorin, sentenced in 2013 to 88 months in prison for his role in the theft of more than $9 million from Atlanta-based card processor RBS Worldpay, and notes the clip is loosely based on Robbie Williams' 2016 music video "Party Like a Russian."
Why it matters: The ad targets a clientele that, in Krebs' words, mostly views America's financial system as one giant ATM that never seems to run out of cash - and the Horohorin case shows that same ecosystem moved over $9 million through a single processor.
