Red Tape - EXCLUSIVE: Hackers turn credit report websites against consumers
A very common scam in the Uk is to rent a flat from an agency. Then install a phone and find a number of prospects, who currently live in good credit worthy areas. The 'experts' may sit in the road to check that a person is working. Mail can be diverted to a PO box number, via the Internet, for a period, on payment of a fee. This allows the 'expert' to check the mail and deliver it back into the address later. Most of them don't bother and just pick a name and area from the phone book.
The names of these people are then entered onto the Voters Roll, via the Internet, of course. The previous 'good' address is entered onto a plethora of credit card applications made in these names, in the recently moved section. The credit cards then arrive through the letterbox!!! No cloning, no stealing of cards, no buying details from websites. Should a firm actually phone up,to check, they are told that a divorce is imminent and the person has moved house. They sometimes pay one card bill with another one to gain a higher credit limit as a good payer!!!! Many get home shopping catalogues and make payments of goods, by card, to raise their limit. They just sell on the goods and eventually furnish a second and third flat, with the rental being paid by card, of course!!!!!!! This is the reason why credit card interest is so high, to pay for all f these losses.
Many of the flats are turned into cannabis farms, with all of the equipment bought, how else, but by credit card, of course. Crooks an make a million profit in under two years, with two or three flats. Just multiply it up to see what 10 flats will bring in!!!!
