One of the most visible and popular credit card checking services in the cybercrime underworld is a platform called Try2Check. Try2Check offers its users the ability to quickly determine the validity of a stolen credit card number, either singly or in bulk; users can upload thousands of card numbers at a time and receive an immediate report of which numbers are valid. Since 2013, the Try2Check platform has facilitated tens of millions of dollars in losses through credit card fraud each year.
Any information regarding these reward offers should be directed to the United States Secret Service at [email protected].
