American and European detective agencies are investigating a credit card fraud of about $100 millions. More then 40 stores in UK were targeted by Fraudsters including Asda, Tesco and Sainsbury’s.
Those fraudsters used Made in China devices to capture selected customer’s Master Card and Personal Identification Number when cards are inserted into super market readers.
The information was transmitted to servers located at Lahore, Pakistan and then cards were cloned and used to steal money for different purposes like to buy airline tickets etc.
Detective agencies are suspecting AL Qaeda because they have been involved in online credit card fraud in past. Credit card companies should secure their system to prevent this kind of cyber crimes.
