Fake GIF Leveraged in Multi-Stage Reverse-Proxy Card Skimming Attack

A sophisticated multi-stage carding attack on a Magento eCommerce website has been uncovered. The malware used a fake gif image file, local browser sessionStorage data, and a malicious reverse-proxy server to steal credit card data, login details, cookies, and other sensitive information. The attack targeted an outdated Magento 1.9.2.4 installation, exploiting its lack of support and security vulnerabilities. The malware injected JavaScript code disguised as Bing tracking code and utilized a tampered payment file to create a user-specific attack. This advanced technique allowed the attackers to intercept and manipulate all website traffic while remaining undetected by victims and administrators.

what the “got mine” crowd haven’t reckoned with yet: Republicans will reverse all the forgiven student then small business loans; then they’ll go after anybody carrying #creditCard #medical #mortgage debt.

the #techbros decided the real wars are #class #wars , and to justify their ridiculous valuations this is what they’re doing: militarizing the tech-financial state to police & garnish people’s #incomes #wages

and they want more slavery with debtors’ prisons

Continued thread

Judge Pittman, an appointee of #Trump, agreed w/both sides that the rule violated the #CreditCard Accountability & Disclosure Act of 2009 because it prohibited issuers from charging fees "reasonable & proportional to violations."

The rule capped late fees for issuers with >1M open accounts unless they could prove higher fees were necessary to cover costs.
It was part of #Biden's crackdown on "junk fees," & was intended to reduce the typical late fee from about $32.

Consumer Financial Protection BureauCFPB Bans Excessive Credit Card Late Fees, Lowers Typical Fee from $32 to $8 | Consumer Financial Protection BureauThe Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) ) finalized a rule today to cut excessive credit card late fees by closing a loophole exploited by large card issuers.

Judge scraps US rule capping #CreditCard late fees at $8

U.S. District Judge Mark Pittman in Fort Worth, #Texas granted a joint request by #Trump’s #CFPB and a coalition of 6 business & banking groups [pretty much who the CFPB is supposed to be protecting #consumers from] including the US Chamber of #Commerce & American #Bankers Association to scrap the rule adopted during President Joe #Biden's administration.

American Express, Visa and MasterCard are all US companies.
I don't understand much about finance, but can't this be problematic at some point?

Shouldn't the EU have its own payment circuit?

Is it possible that those companies would go bankrupt? Or apply extra-costs because the US government required it?

oh shit .. 05:15 in the morning

just spend a night researching #US #consumer houshold #debt, without noticing

at least you can profit of my stupidity because I'm telling now that the world is clearly headed into a 2008 style global #EconomicCrisis

epicenter will again be the #USA

this time it isn't going to be just a #mortage default crisis but a everything default (#AutoLoans, #CreditCard, #StudentDebt, ..)

and the trigger is #tariffs & #doge adding to an already financially hurting nation

Parking at train stations involve inputting credit card number, license plates, next of kin. Did the old ticket system not work?

I mean, in the 1970's they both embossed your credit card number, & put it on a magnetic strip so you never have to type it. Now I have have to type it to park!

I have neither google pay, nor apple wallet. I have this #creditCard with a magnetic strip, & a chip I want to use!

I'm #old.

Why #Toll #Text #Scams Are Out Of Control

The #FBI has issued a warning against “#smishing”, which are text-based scams that people all over the country are receiving on their #phones. #Scammers are impersonating the agencies and companies that collect money for tolls #parkingtickets, #creditcard payments, bank notices, phone bills. Some scams are even fake anti-scam warnings.
