Card "Enrollment" is a type of carding operation in which cybercriminals register stolen cards (primary enroll) into online banking or reset access to online banking (re-rolling) using the real name and personal information of a cardholder.

Unlike other types of fraudulent activities, in which carders leverage stolen financial information or credentials to register an entire fake, card enrollment is centered only over access to online banking leading to more criminal revenues from financial account takeover (ATO) as opposed to the other forms of fraud without online account access.

Enroll significantly assists carders in their activities. The main use of enrolling comes from the benefits provided with online banking access.

  • Allows carders to change billing address and phone number associated with a stolen card, therefore, the holder will not get any updates or alerts
  • Enables to pass mini-deposit verification
  • Helps bypass secure authentication protocols such as Verified-by-Visa (VBV)
  • Helps prepare an e-commerce merchant for important larger fraudulent transactions

Card enrollment becomes a service offered across the underground community. Cybercriminals open shops which either sell access to online banking directly or enroll cards provided to them by their carder customers.
