Dark Web and Clear Web
PatrickStash began being mentioned on cybercrime forums as a viable option for carders in March 2022.
The site’s forum representative is very active in advertising the shop, touting automatic refunds, live statistics, and sellers in a range of countries as their USPs. On this note, the PatrickStash forum account regularly puts out recruitment calls for new vendors to sell to them, garnering a generally positive response.
PatrickStash has two categories, Cards and Cards NoVBV (short for Verified By Visa, now called 3D-Secure, an additional security layer meant to protect against online payment fraud). Despite its overtly Irish theme, the site is more likely to originate from Russia, or at least targets its advertising towards that audience.
