Hello.
One of the largest manufacturers of skimming POS-terminals (hardware and software systems for trade or cashier's workstation) revealed models that are not only outwardly indistinguishable from genuine banking equipment - portable terminals Verifone vx670 and Verifone vx510, but also capable of accurately re-creating the process of communication with a bank and print receipts to confirm purchases while offline.
Skimmers are sold for between $ 2,500 and $ 3,000. The same manufacturer can provide everyone who wants to profit at someone else's expense and cheaper standard gadgets designed to disguise as Diebold Opteva. They are based on a board from a banal MP-3 player, and they work by recording information in the appropriate format. In the future, you will need a small program to decrypt MP3 records - and your money is in someone else's pocket.
Skimming (from the English skim - to skim the cream) is a type of carding (from the English card - card) and is nothing more than a fraud in reading personal information from bank cards of citizens in order to further withdraw money from their accounts in credit institutions.
The main skimming tool is a skimmer - an electronic chameleon-gadget that imitates with its entire appearance a single whole with an ATM or payment terminal. The skimmer consists of two elements: a device for recording data from a magnetic tape of a card and a device for reading a PIN-code from a keyboard - by means of a video camera, an overhead keyboard, a thermal imager, etc.
