I have got a master card from my national bank in Indonesia. I intend to use the card for online-shopping as my main purpose. I have heard and read a lot of crimes on internet, especially carding-crime. I am afraid that while I am having a transaction online, someone steals my card number and my identity, and then he or she can use my card to make transactions online without my knowing.
Why should I afraid of the crime? It is simple. I know their way to succeed in their carding-operation. Here is the illustration of their smooth way. After getting a valid card number, they make transaction online. In this case, the hacker gives a false mailing-address as the delivery address to the merchant. After doing the transaction, certainly he knows the courier service and knows when his orders arrive. In this case, the courier-service cannot find the address to deliver the goods (orders), and by this chance the hacker goes to the courier-service office – and tells them that he wants to check if his orders have arrived by giving them some detailed information about his orders and the merchant (including the false address). Certainly it makes the courier-service believe him and deliver the goods. Congratulations! He succeeds!
