He looked around, reading what people were into, and he started to discover how some people make money online.
And there was an ad he spotted, which was interesting.
Looking for reliable people for ATM runs.
Clean work, fast pay must be trustworthy and reliable.
Alberto was interested, and he had just stumbled into the world of cashers.
A cashier is someone who takes a stolen credit card or debit card and goes to an ATM and uses it to withdraw as much money as possible, then go to other ATMs and do it again and again until the stolen card stops working.
See, thieves are stealing people's credit cards all the time.
Obviously, you could just steal someone's wallet or purse and then use their credit card before they report it stolen.
But the way the world works today is we're doing a lot of our purchases online using credit cards.
If someone could somehow intercept those transactions and see the credit card details being used in the purchase, then you could just take those numbers and go reuse that yourself somewhere.
Or it's possible to hit the mother load and hack into a database of credit cards and steal thousands at once.
See, credit cards are essentially digital money.
So if you can get your hands on the credit card data, it's just as good as if you had a physical card in your possession.
The card itself is not what's valuable.
It's the information on the card that's worth money to the card owner or to thieves.
And once thieves get credit card details, they'll try to drain as much money from it as possible before the bank marks it stolen or turns it off and they can't take any more out.
But it's tricky since you can't just transfer money from the credit card into your own bank account.
