Nizhniy Novgorod police department finished the investigation of the card frauders case which made a lot of noise recently. Ten members of the criminal chain were disclosed and arrested. Their leader, a 21-year old Mariy El resident, kept in touch with hackers who were stealing bank accounts information from Russian and foreign databases and recieved 25-30% of all earnings. The others produced fake clone cards to encash them in ATMs or to pay in stores. If they are found guilty, each one of those ten carders could go to jail for up to 10 years. Although many of hacked banks prefered to pay damages to their clients and not to show up in this lawsuit for reputational concerns.
