During the multi-millennial history of mankind nations have learned hundreds of innumerable ways of fraud - from simple to highly advanced. Furthermore, these methods are constantly changing and improving, but fraudsters are always up to date, inventing such methods of pretext, which correspond to modern actualities. We give a simple example: if in the not too distant nineties peak of their fame were the methods of fraud connected with the construction of so-called pyramid schemes, in our time the most popular are the methods of Internet fraud and fraud with bank cards. On a virtual fraud, you can talk very long for the reason that the very specifics of the Internet (remoteness, anonymity) contributes to the statement that not too many sincere users are able to profit at the expense of others, swindle too gullible citizens. It is not a riddle that over the prevalent type of online ads work for schoolchildren, "Earn $ 100 per hour" and so on are really widespread and wanted. No less beneficial trade is the so-called carding, commonly known as d+p. This method is based on the clarification of the private information on bank cards, and later it uses this information for own future enrichment. Credit cards are now frequently used in post-Soviet territories. They are gradually taking root from western tradition of widespread use of cashless payments. This, in turn, plays into the hands of fraudsters, who have already managed to invent a huge number of methods to gain way in to other's people bank accounts. For instance, today in the Internet you can often find ads that are offered for sale replicas of bank cards visa, as well as special equipment, which lets you to rework information on artificial cards. In add up, fraudsters use various equipment, thanks to which it became possible to gain access to secret information well-known only to the cardholders - for example, the pin-code. Surely, the issuing bank constantly try to counter fraudsters discovering additional protection schemes, but holders of credit cards themselves often behave carelessly and imprudently, thereby the risk of falling victim to scams increases.
