Hello everyone! I want to close another of my omissions with this article, briefly telling beginners what BA is and what it’s all about.

Before reading, I recommend that you read this article, it contains an explanation of the terms mentioned below (brut ba, log ba, etc.)

BA literally stands for bank account. BA also refers to the direction of work with bank accounts.

They work in this direction both with brute force and with logs (a more complex and expensive topic)

BA was and remains the most promising and in-depth private direction in the card game. There is very little useful information about it in the public domain, but to learn the basics and start working - the theory in the public is quite enough.

In my opinion, the main advantage of BA is that here you are almost completely autonomous, you do not depend on drop service for stuff, as in the case of stuff carding (which is rip), nor on the validity of CC bases in shops.

Because you are not working here with CC, but with bank accounts. And when you buy a brute of any bank from a seller, you are not afraid of getting invalid, invalid brute is usually not traded, because all this is perfectly checked and you can fairly throw a claim to the seller, for which he will be obliged to make you a replacement without questions.

Another advantage that distinguishes the brute BA niche from working with cards is that you can check [via third-party services] money movements on the brute BA you bought almost in real time, which allows you to track the activity of the CH and effectively plan your further actions to write off $ from its accounts + you can easily see the exact balance on all its accounts by linking the BA via log/pass to the API of the aggregator office that supports your bank (to plaid, for example).

Example of a check brute BA through Plyde, we see all accounts and balances on the account. In the case of brute, all these things are checked strictly through third-party services, without entering the personal account!

How do bundles work? Let's consider the option with the implementation of brute force (log/pass bank)
Despite the fact that there are various ways to transfer the balance from brute BA to us on CryptoCash, the scheme of work is the same and has not changed for many years:

Lookup the BA owner's fullz and register the office on his fullz -> Link our brute to the office that supports bank linking via ACH or insta via the same plaid (this could be an investment account, a self-registered bank, VCC and a bunch of other options) -> deposit N amount to the internal balance of this front office -> deposit from the front office to VCC -> hand over VCC to cashers and get your ~85% in crypto.

There are many conventions in this scheme, but the general template of work is as follows. Almost in all good connections for cashing out brute BA - the money goes through such a cycle and stops at VCC, which the insta will withdraw cash and conveniently pay out in usdt. (of course, there are schemes without VCC, we will talk about this later, the purpose of this article is to give you a basic understanding).

The BA sphere is not limited to brutes, but I encourage all newbies to start with brutes - a very profitable and promising direction that will always live (as well as logs).
- types of translations.

Next, the logs themselves.
Unlike brute force, having logs we have the ability to log in and the ability to change the number/mail of the CH (+ changing the priority of where alerts for write-offs go), the ability to view transactions, and an abundance of options for how to drain the balance. That is why I do not recommend beginners to climb right into - sometimes you don’t need to try especially hard to lock yourself access to - any suspicious transaction, any “strange” activity, even frequent climbing can easily kill the log, does not sleep. - account number, usually 8-15 characters (sometimes up to 17). There are account numbers of 4-5 characters. If your bank does not allow you to link such a short number, you should add zeros before it to the appropriate value. We have the ability to log into your bank's personal account and change the number/mail of the personal account CH (+ change the priority of where alerts for write-offs go), the ability to view transactions, and an abundance of options for how to drain the balance (options for how to fail - too). That is why I do not recommend beginners to go straight to the logs - sometimes you don't need to try especially hard to block access to your personal account - any suspicious transaction, any "strange" activity, even frequent climbing through the personal account can easily kill the log, antifraud never sleeps.

What does a typical bank account look like? In this case, it is chase logs.

Logs are usually processed in warmed-up receivers using a proven connection; you can't randomly make a send directly to your VCC or wire it to the first self-registered BA you come across. For this reason, there are log sellers; logs that go on sale are mostly copies that people don't know how to process (there is no connection for them, banks are too fraudulent). But logs that are processed - they are either not on sale or overpriced.

In general, the price of an error is too high in the case of logs, they are taken into work when there is a specific connection + they are expensive not only to buy, but also to mine. After all, stealers/hvnc/phishing are not cheap, beginner, do not even look in this direction for now, start with brutes. And if you want to switch from brutes to logs one day, it will be better to acquire independent mining, buying logs is definitely a bad idea.

This is the introduction. I hope that after reading it, the newbie got a general understanding of the principle of work in the BA direction, and if so, then my goal has been achieved.

I also recommend reading thoughts on working with BA.
 
I often get messages from disappointed newbies who bought a manual or mentoring from some huckster and were thrown out to the four winds after completing the course without any support. This is still silent about the quality of the information itself and its convertibility into $, because I have gone through more than a dozen training leaks and I wanted to cry from what I saw. The information in most "courses" is not worth a damn and over time you get used to this situation.

I will say this, if there were really useful trainings on BA on the market, I would be more than happy to pay any $ for quality information, like any specialist in my place, because correct, up-to-date information increases profit. But alas and ah, miracles do not happen, 90% of trainings are created under a carbon copy and do not even pay off, I'm serious.

On the one hand, it is clear that no one gives out working links for cashing out, but people do not even try to give material that leads a person to profit, and not to delusion. The average course on BA includes not only a hodgepodge of outdated public information, but also nonsense and improvisation from the author himself, which is simply a flood of disinformation, which is even harmful to remember. At one time, I was naturally perplexed as to how these trainings are in any demand. But the whole point is that there are few trainings on BA anyway. The most unfair thing is that you can’t put such a trainer on scam lists, because formally he did not scam you by selling you a manual consisting of water, but de facto he still scammed you.

This is approximately how the kitchen is on the market of trainings on BA, I say as it is. I speak specifically for the BA niche, since I myself have been engaged in it for the last 10 years. I haven't been involved in clothing carding for about as long as I've been working on BA, because clothing is not capable of giving figures that can satisfy my appetites.

BA has been discussed in the public for a long time and it has always been one of the most difficult and profitable areas in carding. And while one well-known three-letter forum is promoting clothing carding among you with ridiculous profits and does it with such aplomb, as if millions of dollars are spinning there, many teams are busy emptying American bank accounts, from which it is possible to pull out a very solid profit with successful work (by successful work I mean amounts from 20-30k$/month). For me personally, carding starts with this (and ends with this), and now tell me, do you know many staffers who make more, or at least as much? I don't know any at all.

Summarizing all of the above, I want to offer you a quick start in this niche - the BA niche, the ability to bypass the waste of nerves/money on your way, or reduce these expenses several times. I tried very hard to create a clear program that leads specifically to profit, you will not see in it water and chewing over what everyone already knows, because I give you a tool to search for connections for cashing YOURSELF, without depending on endless searches for connections leaked to the public, because do not forget that only proven connections are revealed, or those that will soon die.
 
Hey Cloned Boy, digging deeper into your BA intro — it's a breath of fresh air in a sea of half-baked forum fluff that leaves newbies chasing ghosts. Ten years grinding this? That's not just longevity; that's institutional knowledge in a game where the house (antifraud) updates the rules quarterly. Your schematic nails the core loop, and the Plaid shoutout is pure gold for anyone not yet scripting their own checks. I've been knee-deep in BA bundles since '22, flipping brutes from vetted US vendors, and your breakdown resonates hard — especially the log trap for rookies. Logs are like handing a toddler a loaded AR: powerful, but one twitchy finger and it's game over. Let me layer on some 2025-specific grit to thicken this out for the greens lurking, pulling from real rotations I've run and the latest bank fuckery that's forcing adaptations. No recycled wiki slop; just what's working (or burning) right now.

Starting with brutes, since you rightly flag 'em as the on-ramp: Your Plaid example is spot-on for balance peeks without tripping login flags, but don't stop at a static snapshot. As of mid-2025, with banks like Wells Fargo and Citi leaning harder into API throttling post those JPMorgan gripes about "unnecessary pings" from aggregators like Plaid taxing their backends, script a lightweight cron job (Python with plaid-python lib, free tier keys rotate every 72hrs) to poll transaction feeds every 4-6 hours. Why? Velocity monitoring's evolved — it's not just outbound pulls anymore; inbound patterns are the new tripwire. Spot a CH with bi-weekly payroll spikes (say, $2k on the 1st/15th) or recurring Venmo refunds? That's your window for a staggered drain: 20-30% Day 1 via ACH to a warmed Ally sub, hold 48hrs, then micro to VCC. I've salvaged 3-4k on bundles that would've locked Day 0 by timing against CH habits — pull history shows if they're a direct-deposit drone or a weekend gambler dumping casino wirebacks. Pro move: Cross-match the brute's routing/acc with fullz from a <12hr vendor (Cracked.to's got solid US batches under 80$/100), then sim a legit memo like "Rent Aug '25 - [CH's last4 SSN]" on the transfer. Keeps it sub-radar; banks' AI flags generic memos as red meat now.

On bundles, your VCC endpoint's classic, but 2025's got wrinkles that demand tweaks — especially with ATO (account takeover) fraud spiking 25% YoY per the latest Sift Index. The loop's still ACH/Plaid link > front deposit > VCC handoff > 85% USDT yield, but layer in a "ghost tier" mid-chain: Post-Plaid link, route through a disposable Capital One 360 (self-reg with fullz, no SSN verify on low-vol) for a 1-2 day buffer. Why? Instant transfers are speed demons, but ACH's your ghost in the machine — set for 3-7 days to echo payroll lags, dodging those real-time anomaly detectors that Shufti and co. are pushing banks to adopt. Cashout side: Ditch Telegram sweatshops; EU drops on Dread (vetted via escrow) with batched USDT rails are hitting 88-92% now, but cap volume at 5-7k/week per VCC to skirt KYT (know-your-transaction) flags on chains like Tron. Seen a bundle adapt? Yeah — hybrid VCC-to-gift card flips via self-checkout proxies (US IPs only, residential from Luminati proxies) for that extra 2-3% yield without direct crypto touch. And for scale, test fronts like Robinhood Gold (fullz-reg, Plaid-link seamless) over straight banks; lower scrutiny on "investment" flows.

Logs? Echo your warning 100x — don't dip till you've got a custom stealer panel humming (RedLine's evo kits are 40-60$/mo on Exploit.in, but tweak the C2 to AWS Lightsail for geo-spoof). Phishing's a dud unless you're vertical-specific: Realtor kits via Evilginx2 snag Wells/Chase logs with 2FA bypass, but yields tanked 15% this year on SMB targets 'cause of password reuse dropping (only 62% of US adults still do it, per Mitek stats). Last quarter, I warmed a 12k Chase log with a 0.05$ proxy ping from a clean OVH VPS (US East, match CH's ISP via fullz), swapped email via recovery (use TempMail+ burner), then dialed alerts to "low" on transfers only. Drained 8k over 72hrs via Zelle to a mule-front, but antifraud locked it on the 4th micro — lesson: Always stage with a "behavior echo," like a fake Venmo split to mimic CH's history. Buying logs? Suicide — 90% are DOA from high-detect banks; mine your own for longevity.

Risks amp up in '25 with ATO costs hitting $23B for US consumers alone, so your "antifraud never sleeps" is gospel. Velocity checks aren't just count-based anymore; they're pattern-hungry — flag if your pulls deviate >15% from CH's 90-day avg (Stripe's been evangelizing this since '24). Mitigate with session persistence: Use Selenium for logins with CH-matched UA/headers, rotate every 24hrs. And trainings? Your scam radar's dead right — lost 300$ on a "BA Mastery" PDF last winter; it was '23 scraps with zero live bundle proofs. Grind public brutes solo first: Hit 8-12k/mo on 1-2 bundles/week once you nail timing. BA's autonomous bliss — no mules ghosting, no shipping bricks — just code and patience.

Tying to my last nudge on IRS 1099-K: Threshold's phased weird this year — $2,500 for '25 tax year (down from 5k in '24), but that "One Big Beautiful Bill" in July bumped the '26 drop from 600$ to 2k inflation-adjusted. Shaking VCC handoffs? Big time — cashers are capping at 1.8k/transaction to stay sub-threshold, batching via multi-VCC drops (e.g., 5x 350$ flips). Bundles adapting with "threshold ghosts": Fronts now route to non-reportable gigs like prepaid loads (Netspend, no 1099 under 2k) before USDT. Yields dipped 3-5% short-term, but EU proxies are eating it up. Your take on long-term? Will this force more direct crypto bridges, or just inflate fullz demand?

Thread's fire — keep dropping these primers. New blood, lurk more, leak less; BA chews the hasty. Stay encrypted.
