For those of you who have read "Getting Serious about Carding by Optical Illusion", this is a somewhat a con- tinuation of things you need to know about carding which Optical Illusion did not cover. In this file, we'll try to cover the aspects of the use (or shall we say misuse) of a credit card, strategies mail order companies keep us from getting away with carding, and a list of bank id numbers with their banks. II. CREDIT CARDS versus CHARGE CARDS Many people have the misconception that all cards are credit cards. This is of course not true. For example, American Express is a charge card and not a credit card. American Express is a charge card since the owner of the card must pay off the whole amount when his bill comes. If the owner doesn't, he or she is in serious shit. One thing good about the American Express is that it has no limit on how much the person can spend as long as the person can pay off the bill when it comes. Basically, the card is based on the person's good judgement on how much money the person have. Why is there American Express Gold and regular American Express cards then? It still has a hidden limit which you cannot buy a Corvette ZR-1 with a regular American Express. You could however do it with a American Express Platinum (if you can find one to abuse). This means you can buy more expensive things at one time with a Gold or Platinum card. Credit cards have a set limit after you you apply for the card. Usually a Classic Visa has about $700 plus or minus $100. Mastercard on the other hand has about $1000 limit on it. III. TYPES OF CARDS Credit Cards Charge Cards VISA American Express Mastercard American Express Optima Discover Gold Platinum Here's a couple type of cards I do not know what category they fall into since they are never accepted by mail order companies. One of them is Diner's Club International and the other is Carte Blanche. Bank name Bank name _______________________________ _______________________________ | | | | | | | BANK of N A R C | V I S A| | BANK of N A R C | V I S A| | |________| | |________| | | | | | | | 4000 123 456 789 |hologram| | 4000 0123 4567 8910 |hologram| | |________| | |________| | 00/00 00/00 CV | ___ | | 00/00/00 00/00/00 PV| ___ | | | // | | | // | | John Doe | XX__ | | John Doe Jr. | XX__ | --------------------------------- --------------------------------- ^ ^ |________________________________________| VISAs are grouped either | in 4XXX XXX XXX XXX or | 4XXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. This is either a C or a P. The 2 groupings used are different for C for Classic (regular) each bank. There are banks' P for Preferred (better, much better) preferred cards that are group in 4 3 3 3. _______________________________ | | | | | B A N K of N. A. R. C.| All Mastercards are 12 digits grouped |_______________________________| in blocks of four digits each. | ___ | | 5000 1234 4567 8910 / X| | |M C|| | |M C|| | Joe Card Alot X___/| --------------------------------- | 1234 is the bank id number. The bank may have more than one id number for their 5000 XXXX XXXX XXXX series cards. IV. MAIL ORDER COMPANIES Most of the mail order companies will accept Visa or Mastercard. Some will also accept American Express and Discover. These mail order companies check the card by either calling into a TRW center to check if the amount of the order will exceed the limit. In either case of a approval or declining, the mail order companies will call you back to check with you the order you have placed. Anyways, a way of finding a valid card is to call a credit approval system yourself. Here's some ways of checking: (1) 1-800-554-2265 for check Mastercard or Visa for mastercard 10#1067#24#CARD#EXP#XX*XX# for Visa 20#1067#24#CARD#EXP#XX*XX# - 10 and 20 are for the type of cards - 1067 is the bank id number - 24 is the merchant number (52 will also work) - EXPiration must be in the form of 0291 for feb of 1991 - XX*XX is the amount. Use a small number like 11*04 for $11.04. Another way mail order companies verifying cards is to call the bank of the card and verify the name of the person and the billing address versus the name you gave the mail order companies and the address (drop site). So the only way of getting pass this is to have the stuff sent to the person's address or getting the waybill number from the mail order houses and intercept the package at the UPS or Federal Express office before the package arrive's at the card owner's address.

If you know any more Bank Id#'s and the first four digits to which issuing bank which are not listed above, please contact me (Htaed) at Nuclear Wasteland or at Critical Condition. If you also know what bank owns which numbers, also contact me.What I really want is the small banks that issues cards' numbers like Brookside Savings with like only two branches offices. __ _ __ ( c ) N.
