Skimming Dumps Locally: A Guide to Using POSiden and POS Malware

By /

Introduction

In the previous part, we discussed the process of cloning 101 dumps using Phantom Club. However, obtaining dumps is only half the battle. The other half is skimming dumps locally using POS malware. This guide will walk you through the process of using POSiden and POS malware to skim dumps from point-of-sale (POS) terminals.

Understanding POS Malware

POS malware is a type of malicious software designed to steal credit card information from POS terminals. It works by intercepting the data transmitted between the POS terminal and the payment processor. POSiden is a popular POS malware that can be used to skim dumps locally.

Setting Up POSiden

  1. Download POSiden: You can find POSiden on various dark web marketplaces. Make sure to download it from a reputable source.
  2. Install POSiden: Extract the downloaded files and install POSiden on your computer.
  3. Configure POSiden: Open POSiden and configure it to your needs. You can set the target IP address, port, and other settings.

Skimming Dumps Locally

  1. Connect to the POS Terminal: Connect your computer to the POS terminal using a USB cable or Bluetooth. Make sure the terminal is turned on and connected to the internet.
  2. Run POSiden: Launch POSiden and select the target POS terminal. POSiden will start communicating with the terminal and begin skimming the dumps.
  3. Wait for Dumps: POSiden will start collecting the dumps from the POS terminal. The time it takes to collect dumps depends on the terminal’s activity and the amount of data being transmitted.
  4. Stop POSiden: Once you’ve collected enough dumps, stop POSiden. The dumps will be saved on your computer.

Using POS Malware

While POSiden is a popular choice, there are other POS malware options available. Here are a few tips for using POS malware:

  • Choose the Right Malware: Different POS malware has different features and capabilities. Choose a malware that suits your needs and is compatible with your target POS terminal.
  • Test the Malware: Before using the malware on a live POS terminal, test it on a test terminal to ensure it works correctly.
  • Be Patient: Skimming dumps can take time. Don’t rush the process, as this can increase the risk of detection.
  • Use Encryption: To protect your data, use encryption when transmitting and storing the dumps.

Cashing Out Skimmed Dumps

Once you’ve collected the dumps, you can use them to make purchases or cash out. Here’s how:

  1. Clone the Dumps: Use a service like Phantom Club to clone the dumps.
  2. Make Purchases: Use the cloned cards to make purchases online or at physical stores.
  3. Cash Out: Follow the same cash out strategies discussed in Part 1. Use multiple cards, prepaid cards, and different withdrawal methods to minimize risk.
