| Fri Jul 6 2007 | Increase in Credit Card fraud attempts recently |
| We have seen a dramatic rise in attempted Credit Card fraud in our site over the last month. Particularly from Africa/Ghana and South-East Asia. As a result, we no longer accept international credit cards at SecretNet. We have been working with NSW Police on this, as the credit card fraud attempts have all been for goods delivered to local NSW addresses. Please note that if you have been requested to order goods using somebody else's credit card details whom you don't know (especially if you have had an individual confront you to 'join their business'), then you may be unwittingly participating in international credit card fraud. You should never agree to receive goods for an order paid for with somebody else's credit card details of people you do not know, no matter what the person says to you. This level of organisation is a major criminal offence. |
