Recently, the variety of digital currencies has allowed fraudsters to anonymously sell goods and services in illegal online stores. Governments around the world are actively fighting illegal trade on the dark web. For example, the United States authorities arrested the director of the Silk Road online platform in 2013 and seized millions of dollars in Bitcoin equivalent from his accounts.

The Business Insider Internet portal has compiled a list of goods and services that are sold on such resources. Most of them are intended for an English-speaking audience and are being marketed in the United States. Most often, criminals demand payment in cryptocurrency.

1. Social Security Number (US)

It is an analogue of an identification number and is required when applying for work, study, buying real estate, and other operations. Fraudsters seek to obtain legal numbers, thereby committing identity theft.

2. Stolen credit card numbers

Fraudsters sell blocks of 100 stolen payment details because most users block their credit cards immediately after theft of their wallet or cyberattack on an electronic wallet. Such a block costs $ 17. If all credit cards turn out to be unblocked, the buyer can receive up to $ 350,000 in credit limit.

3. 3D printing

Criminals offer their printers to print everything from weapons to ATM skimming devices.

4. Subscription to Internet TV

At first glance, subscribing to the online TV channel Netflix is not illegal. However, it will cost the buyer only $ 1 and will be paid with a stolen credit card.

5. Online lottery

Probably, in order to improve their karma, in addition to prohibited goods, the owners of online stores sell ordinary sand from the beach on the Internet, promising to give half of the cost to charity.

Earlier it was reported that experts tracked the movement of compromised data on the Internet.
