Vladislav Khorokhorin
One of the most high-profile cases was the detention of Vladislav Khorokhorin, the son of a well-known Russian MP Roman Seleznev. The former hacker and international credit card merchant, better known as BadB, was considered by US authorities to be one of the most dangerous cybercriminals in the world.
Khorokhorin was one of the top managers of the first carder forum CarderPlanet: a platform that brought together several thousand people who were engaged in carding-theft and sale of credit card data.
The community flourished in 2003-2004. After his arrest in 2010, the hacker spent two years in a French prison, and in 2012 he was extradited to the United States-accused of trading data from millions of stolen credit cards.
As a result, the sentence was 7 years and 4 months, but the hacker made a deal, and the sentence was reduced. The businessman later admitted that the daily turnover of thefts reached 1 billion rubles
. Currently, Khorokhorin is at large. Back in 2003, BadB started developing its own projects that do not contradict the law, which it continues to do at the present time.
Dmitry Golubov
Dmytro Golubov, nicknamed Script — is a Ukrainian carder and a member of the CarderPlanet forum. Dmitry's criminal talent was manifested in his youth.
Material damage caused by the Golubov Group's activities is estimated at $12 million. Golubov's activities were once patronized by the son of ex-President Alexander Yanukovych. Only in Ukraine did Golubov face up to 12 years in prison, but after 4 years of trial, he was fully acquitted.
Perhaps due to his influence, Dmitry Golubov spent only 5 months behind bars. He is currently active in politics and has been the head of the Internet Party of Ukraine since 2010.
Roman Vega
Roman Vega is a Ukrainian carder, a member of the CarderPlanet community, who was nicknamed Voa "Boa Constrictor”. In the late 1990s, Roman Vega created the Boa Factory website. They also sold plastic cards or data from them, traveler's checks and forged documents.
In the United States, a Ukrainian who organized 6,000 hackers into a criminal group was sentenced to 18 years in prison instead of the expected life sentence.
Dmitry Naskovets
Dmitry Naskovets is a well-known cybercriminal. Together with his partner, he organized a transnational criminal company CallService.biz — a web resource for carders that helped them bypass the security systems of American banks. More than 2 thousand people used the services of the criminal group. Naskovets was arrested in Prague in 2010 and extradited to the United States.
Dmitry faced 40 years in prison for cybercrime, but he made a deal with justice and served four and a half years — 33 months in the famous Federal Prison in Manhattan and two years in Pennsylvania, awaiting deportation to Belarus, which he managed to avoid contrary to generally accepted practice.
Currently, Dmitry is a co-owner of a law firm in the United States.
Sergey Pavlovich
Sergey Pavlovich is a former cybercriminal, a well-known carder, who was sentenced to 10 years in prison in 2009, and the creator of the project "People PRO".
After being released, Sergey began to develop a personal brand, created his own blog and published the book "How I Stole a million. Confessions of a Repentant Carder", which became a bestseller. In general, US intelligence agencies estimate the damage caused by Carder's activities at $36 million. According to him, he himself earned no more than $ 1.2 million.
In 2015, Sergey was released from prison and officially announced that he had ended his criminal life. Currently, on the YouTube channel "People PRO" Sergey regularly publishes interviews with the most famous carders in the world, showing the reverse side of fraud and clearly explaining why you should not engage in carding.
Conclusion
Carding is punishable, especially in the United States of America. Even the most influential carders did not manage to completely avoid punishment. So, work honestly, my friends.
Good luck and profit!
