Some basic questions

[DownUndah]

I have been in various communities about similar topics and have seen the prevalence of scamming in said communities. I assume it is the same in physical carding communities, with that is there any reputable dump+pin sellers? If not i assume you either need to acquire the information yourself or be apart of a crew that has access to that information (bins+pins). How would you even find partners in an operation like that?

Is the installation of skimmers complected or overly risky? I have found in social engineering that the fear of being caught is much higher than the real risk.

If you are unable to source dumps with the pins, what is the point of a dump by itself which I've seen being sold on various marketplaces?

Our forum has verified and reputable dump+pin stores that you can find in this post:

Using "ZCS160 USB PSCS 4 in 1 Magnetic card Reader + EMV chip / NFC / PSAM card reader writer only for APDU command professional person" we can write 201 dumps with pins to java cards. Then cash out cards at ATMs or POS terminals.

There are even more reliable sellers of dumps without a pin on the forum, but they are more difficult to cash out.
Due to the large databases of dumps with pins, store owners are forced to put them up for sale. It would make more sense if they cashed them out themselves, maybe they do that with some of the dumps.

Installing skimmers is not a difficult job if you follow the rules of safety and anonymity when working. The problem is that it is difficult to find trusted manufacturers and sellers of modern skimmers.
I only know two, here are their topics:

Installing skimmers and getting fresh dumps is an interesting job, but why take the risk if you can immediately buy valid dumps with or without a pin.
Cashing out "dump+pin" is a very profitable topic, fast and with large earnings with minimal investment in the material. To do this, you can select card data by bins - “business” and “corporate” in order to have a large balance.

In addition, we can find dump cashers who just need to transfer data. They will write down plastic cards themselves and cash them out for a set percentage. It will be safe to give them dumps for this work if they work through the Escrow Service or top up the security deposit. This will help avoid deception on their part.

Thank you for the insights and pointers (especially toward the ZCS160), you make a good point about the skimmers being unneeded at this point, not even including the added risk, maintenance and sourcing issues.

I'll be sure to help on this forum in the future if i see anything i can give real insight to, thank you again.
