Online Course Teaches Russian-Speaking Hackers Latest Carding Tricks - Catalin Cimpanu, Bleeping Computer
Russian-speaking criminals are offering a six-week online course that teaches wannabe hackers all they need to know to enter the online fraud and carding scene. Discovered by threat intelligence firm Digital Shadows, the course is advertised on Russian underground sites and is available only in Russian. It's like a carders' university. The program, known as WWH, costs 45,000 Russian rubles ($760) with an additional $200 for course materials, sums that coursants can pay via Bitcoin or Webmoney. Enrolled coursants will study under five expert instructors in live webinars. All classes are capped at 15 members, so instructors can cater to all attendees. The program also provides detailed notes and course materials in the form of PDF files.
