Gift Cards

A CVV dump is a text file. It holds stolen credit card data. The file includes card numbers, expiration dates, and CVV codes. Criminals sell CVV dumps on dark web markets. Buying or selling a CVV dump is illegal in the United States and most countries.

What a CVV dump contains

A basic CVV dump has four fields: card number, expiration date, CVV code, and cardholder name. Some dumps include billing address, zip code, and phone number. A dump with full personal data is called a "fullz." Prices range from $5 to $50 per card. Bulk files can cost less per card.

How CVV dumps are obtained

Criminals get card data through skimming devices, phishing emails, and data breaches. Malware on point-of-sale systems can also capture card numbers. After a breach, stolen data is packaged into CVV dumps.

How CVV dumps are sold

Sellers use dark web forums, Telegram channels, and automated shops. Buyers pay with cryptocurrency. Some markets use escrow to reduce fraud between criminals. Law enforcement monitors these markets.

Legal penalties for buying or selling CVV dumps

In the US, 18 U.S.C. § 1029 covers fraud with access devices. A conviction can lead to up to 10 years in prison and fines. Selling CVV dumps can also trigger identity theft charges. The FBI and US Secret Service investigate these crimes.

How to protect yourself

Check bank statements every week. Enable transaction alerts. Use virtual card numbers for online shopping. Freeze your credit if you see unknown charges. Report fraud to the FTC and your bank.
