The Cybersecurity Academy topic is about the most common professions in the Darknet! We analyzed how much Graffiti Artists, Stashers, Carders, Programmers, Hackers earn, and we didn’t ignore such serious professions as Bank Fillers and Extortionists! Read on, it will be interesting!
Hi, bro! Shadow!
The whole world in which you can find a job for yourself in the course, it all depends on you. Your aspirations and goals. And of course, on a drop of luck. The main line of business in the Darknet is the sale of illegal products. As a rule, goods purchased in the Darknet are delivered by a courier who has no idea what exactly he is transporting. There are several large corporations around the world that are engaged in illegal sales.
These corporations have representatives in almost all countries, in each of which a local exchange for trading in prohibited goods appears. It is easy to enter the Darknet, but you are unlikely to be able to use its main capabilities, because most people simply do not know what to do with the things they receive.
I especially like reading stories when they order illegal goods to their address. Fools, what can you expect from them? However, business on the Darknet is not only about selling weapons and drugs. Entrepreneurs who, for one reason or another, want to hide their business, and not necessarily illegal ones, also go to the dark web.
On the Darknet, for example, you can buy various means to ensure information security on the network, buy laptops, phones with additional functions. In this issue, we will analyze the most common professions on the Darknet.
They say that the Darknet is full of easy money. Is this true?
Partly. In the shadow sphere, it is not always possible to achieve stability using some scheme. These schemes are very original, several groups work according to them, and they are, as a rule, super profitable. These are very large numbers. I will not name my personal income, because money loves silence.
It is quite possible to start earning 5-10 thousand greenbacks a month. And I would not say that these are incredible amounts. And a hundred or two wooden ones, it's a piece of cake, it's like a minimum living wage here, within the power of any schoolboy charged with action, ready to break the boundaries of conventional morality.
But if you want real bankrolls, then there is no freebie here. For millions, you will have to work twenty-four to seven. This is not a money button, where you press and you get it. Although, in fact, you really press, and you get it, but in order to press it successfully, you need to perform a ritual with tambourines. In any case, for normal money you will have to fuck.
Make yourself comfortable, we are starting ...
TOP-10 black professions.
No. 1. Drops and denominations.
The job of the drops is to show their mugs in passport data; drops are needed to register in payment systems, banks, to register company cards, and when performing registration actions in the criminal world; they occupy the lowest level in the hierarchy; they are used as cannon fodder on which all the sticks will fly when investigating crimes.
The salary of a drop is from 1 thousand to 10 thousand rubles per output. In some situations, it is common practice to pay drops for a percentage of the department. Consequences from law enforcement officers are rare; as a rule, when a drop is called in for questioning by the security service of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, it is written on the drop's face that he is a drop. The maximum that threatens him is an interrogation in order to obtain information about who the drop transferred the data to.
If you still decide to become a drop, you need to think of a legend in case the operatives knock on your door.
No. 2. Droppers.
Droppers are managers who work with drops. In the criminal world, they also occupy a low position, due to the fact that droppers, due to their characteristics, As a rule, all the droppers I have met are, to put it mildly, scum, not far removed from drops, often former drops themselves. Droppers cannot organize financial fraud themselves.
They sell the completed material for relatively pennies to more experienced bigwigs of the criminal world. The main tasks of droppers are to find drops, maintain contact with drops, settle accounts with drops, and check the validity of the received materials. The average dropper earns from 100 thousand rubles per month. In some cases, a pumped-up authoritative dropper and part-time seller of material for cashing out, and also engaged in the registration of an LLC, can earn up to 1 million per month.
In this case, the process of droppering can be organized remotely.
No. 3. Document drawer.
There is a large market of all kinds of photocopies of documents for verification of services and accounts on the Darknet. Often, for verification, it is necessary to provide scans of documents that there is no physical access to. This is where graphic designers come to the rescue, who can draw any document, bank card, selfie with a passport in hand, drawn documents, etc.
The earnings of such a designer, graphic designer start from 50 grand a month and sometimes, with a competent approach, reach several hundred thousand rubles. A striking example of the most famous graphic designer on the Darknet is the service "Mamkin Otrisovalschik", which, in addition to drawing services, is engaged in training those who want to start their own business in this direction.
No. 4. Recruiter.
Recruiters select personnel to work on the Darknet. Employees are sought not only on Darknet forums and boards. Avito, Headhunter, Freelance.Ru. The list of sites is endless. The skills of proper recruitment allow you to search for personnel everywhere, where you can communicate without personal contact. A recruiter is a good psychologist and knows how to persuade, thanks to which specialists agree to services that are beneficial to both parties.
But the most important thing! A recruiter knows how to select people who are ideal for a vacancy. The customer, if desired, can implement any personnel preference at his own expense. The fee for each person hired can reach 15% of his salary. A recruiter's income is purely individual.
Some earn 300-500 dollars per person, and someone is able to earn more than two thousand greenbacks per month. This is good money. Especially when compared with the salary of an HR manager in a white company. The Darknet also has its own Headhunter, where you can respond to a vacancy for a drug dealer or hire a killer. Payments on the Darknet are usually made in bitcoins, since they are difficult to track.
But sometimes they use electronic wallets and bank cards. One of the advantages of doing business on the Darknet is a closed, not numerous, but extremely stable and solvent client base.
No. 5. Programmer.
Cybercriminal groups need personnel no less than their white counterparts.
On the Darknet, you can find vacancies for IT specialists in the field of system administration, testing and programming, who are not against earning money through not entirely legal, or rather completely illegal activities, including the creation of vornets, ransomware viruses and other malicious software.
Analysts from cybersecurity companies Digital Shadows have found a vacancy in the Darknet for one of the cybercriminal organizations. An IT specialist willing to cooperate with the cyber group is promised to be paid up to 64 thousand dollars a month, with the possibility of raising the salary to 90 thousand a month after two years of cooperation. Thus, a loyal IT specialist in the cyber group can earn up to one million a year, and candidates with knowledge of Chinese, Arabic or German can add another 10% to this salary.
Also, the Digital Shadow report states that for assistance in extorting money from high-ranking officials, keyboard companies, lawyers and doctors, cyber groups offer a salary of up to 30 thousand a month, 360 thousand a year.
There is also an offer for those who want to work for themselves. For only $10, anyone can buy a manual on extortion, as well as stolen educational data, confidential documentation, access to sites and networks, and the like. For example, one of the manuals describes how to start an online relationship with a married man and then blackmail him. The author of the manual claims that this is one of the simplest schemes for beginners, which can bring in $300-500 from the victim.
There are also more informative manuals for extortionists, which can be purchased from 5 bitcoins. One of these manuals contains 200 pages of training material on organizing a private online business on the Darknet.
No. 6. Hacker.
Since cyberspace appeared on the pedestal of the criminal world, hackers have risen. With the help of special software and the use of social engineering methods, hackers can gain access to all existing encrypted systems. A hacker's earnings can be as much as you want.
Literally, a hacker can get into a bank's server and draw any amount on the account balance.
How much do bot factories earn on the Darknet?
Scientists from the Netherlands have studied the underground economy of bot factories. They calculated how much networks of fake accounts created by hackers cost and how much money their owners bring. For example, a device infected with your virus will cost from 2 to 10 cents per installation. Separate expenses and maintaining the botnet in shape.
Monitoring devices, re-infection, the post says. According to experts, a botnet of 10 million devices costs about 16 million dollars. The owner of the network receives income from various services. For example, a DDoS network of 50 thousand devices generates 26 thousand dollars per month. Spam mailings to 10 thousand bots bring in 300 thousand dollars per month.
Banner clicks — up to $20 million per month.
#7. Checker.
Hackers scan the network, infecting a huge number of white, public IP addresses used to access the Internet with malware. But they leave it to the small fry to check how much they managed to increase the privileges in the infected machine.
#8. Carders.
Carders are considered the elite of the cybercriminal world. Their main activity is stealing money from bank cards and payment systems. Carders' earnings in carding groups start from one million dollars per month. Carding is one of the most respected specializations on the Darknet. Stories about carders can be told for days on end.
But the most sensational story happened to the author of the book "Confession of a Repentant Carter", which tells the story of how Carter was born. The book is based on real events, and its author, Sergei Pavlovich, became a famous blogger and businessman after leaving prison. I'll let you in on a little secret.
A lot of smart professionals came from carding. Many former carders created successful companies in the field of electronic payments, had their own payment systems, cancelers and other payment instruments. Moreover, I will say Elon Musk himself made his fortune on carding. It sounds unrealistic, of course, and the theory resembles a conspiracy theory.
But think for yourself, why did the creator of the PayPal payment system Elon Musk leave so many bugs and holes in the payment system from customer accounts, in which hackers, hand in hand with quarries, withdrew billions. In short, all financial institutions are in cahoots.
No. 9. Graffiti artist.
A graffiti artist is one of the most common types of earnings on the Darknet. The task of a graffiti artist is to paint advertisements for stores selling prohibited goods on the walls of houses with a spray can of paint. On average, you can make up to fifty inscriptions in one trip, while earning five thousand rubles minus the cost of paint.
In the criminal world, he does not hold any position, but rather acts as an offline marketer for dealers.
No. 10. Stash man. Courier. Stasher.
Perhaps one of the most vile and dangerous methods of earning money on the Darknet is punishable by imprisonment from four to ten years in prison. A stash is a place where illegal substances are hidden. At the beginning of the work, the stash man receives a batch of goods from dealers, conditionally 50 grams. The task of the Stash Man is to list the goods in doses and wait for information on which microdistrict to bury the caches in.
The dealers themselves are usually abroad, in complete safety. They organize their business remotely, sipping tequila and drinking cake on the shores of the Caribbean Sea. As a result, the Stash Man sooner or later leaves under Article 228, and his place is taken by a new mule hoping to make easy money. The position of the Stash Man in the criminal world is nil.
They, like droups, bear the entire burden of responsibility. But without them, the barons would not be able to build their empires. With them, everything is simple. Want a trick? Ta-da! He evaporated! And a new one appeared!
