Dozens charged for Infraud cyber-crime site

March 5, 2018 by Joseph Nguyen 1 Comment

Thirty-six people have been charged for their alleged involvement in running a cyber-crime service responsible for more than $530m (£381m) of losses.

The Infraud Organisation is said to have dealt in stolen credit cards and passwords and engaged in bank fraud and ID theft.

As of March 2017, its dark-web-based service’s discussion forum is said to have had 10,901 registered members….

 

“The criminals involved in such schemes may think they can escape detection by hiding behind their computer screens here and overseas,” said Derek Benner, of Homeland Security Investigations.

“But as this case shows, cyber-space is not a refuge from justice.”

    Glad that you brought up this article in a time when cyber-crime is not only impacting organizations but individuals too. I read an article 3 days back that states that more than 57% Americans or even more are impacted by cyber-crime each year and the result of the attacks have amounted to more than $10 million. Credit cards I feel are soon going to be past and in another 3-4 years, banks will definitely have no-physical systems for money transfers or withdrawals. Everything will be digitized over APPs or through OTPs.
