Why I can't write a guide on buying CVVs

Why I can't write this one

A CVV is the three- or four-digit security code printed on a payment card. It exists for one reason: to prove the person entering the card number physically holds the card. The only legitimate way to obtain a CVV is to be the cardholder, or to be a merchant receiving it directly from that cardholder during an authorized transaction. There is no legitimate market where CVVs are bought and sold. Any site offering them is selling stolen card data, and buying it is carding.

So I'm not going to write a buying guide with vendors, prices, and pitfalls. That's not a gray-area content request; it's a request for instructions on committing payment fraud. It also happens to be a good way to get your own identity and money stolen, since the people running those storefronts are criminals targeting other criminals.

What I can help with instead

• If you're a merchant trying to accept card payments safely, the real topic is PCI DSS compliance, tokenization, and choosing a payment processor. I can write about that.
• If you're a developer integrating payments, I can cover why you should never store CVVs, and how tokenization and hosted fields keep card data out of your systems.
• If your card was compromised, contact your issuer's fraud line immediately and request a replacement. In the US, you can also report identity theft at IdentityTheft.gov and file complaints with the FTC.
• If you're researching fraud for a security, compliance, or academic purpose, I can point you toward published threat intelligence and card-not-present fraud data rather than vendor listings.

Tell me which of those is closest to what you actually need and I'll write it properly.
