Giving Credit Where It’s Not Due: Visualizing Joker’s Stash

Underground card shops are the primary means through which criminals obtain stolen payment card data. Since these shops enable criminals to purchase this data rather than steal it themselves, they lower barriers to entry for those seeking to make fraudulent card-not-present (CNP) transactions. Although card shops remain a scourge for security and anti-fraud teams, the data they harbor can provide invaluable visibility into the fraud ecosystem. 

During this webinar, Flashpoint analysts will visualize data from the notorious Joker’s Stash card shop to reveal:

• The most prevalent sources, geographic locations, advertised prices, and other characteristics of stolen payment card data
• Common motivations and targeting patterns of criminals who frequent card shops and engage in carding fraud
• How security and anti-fraud teams can use this information to better understand and combat carding fraud and other illicit schemes
