Well, defined loosely, carding is the art of credit card manipulation to access goods or services by way of fraud. But dont let the “politically correct” definition of carding stop fool you, because carding is more than that. Much more.
Although different people card for different reasons, the motive is usually tied to money. Yea, handling a $9,000 plasma television in your hands and knowing that you didn’t pay one red cent for it is definitely a rush.

But other factors contribute to your personal reason for carding. Many carders in the scene come from poor countries, such as Argentina, Pakistan, and Lebanon where $50 could mean a weeks pay, on a good day. Real carders (the one that have been in the scene the longest) seem to card for something more, however. The thrill of cc manipulation? The rush that the federalizes could bust down your door at any minute? The defiance of knowing that everyday that you are walking among the public is another day that you have gotten away with a federal crime? Whatever your persona reason for carding is, this tutorial should answer a few noobie questions and take the guessing out of the entire carding game. The resources and techniques mentioned in this tutorial are NOT, I repeat, NOT the only methods of carding. Experience in carding is key. You have to practice your own methods and try out new techniques in carding to really get a system that works for you. This tutorial is meant to get you on your way.
If the carder purchases a gift card for an electronic retailer, such as Amazon, he or she may use a third-party to receive the goods and then ship them to other locations. This limits the carder’s risk of drawing attention. The carder may also sell the goods on websites offering a degree of anonymity. Because credit cards are often canceled quickly after being lost, a major part of carding involves testing the stolen card information to see if it still works. This may involve submitting purchase requests on the Internet.
BREAKING DOWN 'Carding'
The United States is a significant target for credit card fraud because it is a large market in which credit card and debit card use is common, and because the types of cards that are used only contain a magnetic strip rather than the chip and pin technology found in other countries.

How Carding Happens
Carding typically starts with a hacker gaining access to a store or website’s credit card processing system, with the hacker obtaining a list of credit or debit cards that were recently used to make a purchase. A hacker might exploit weaknesses in the security software and technology intended to protect credit card accounts. They might also procure credit card information by using scanners to copy the coding from the magnetic strips. Credit card information might also be compromised by accessing the account holder’s other personal information, such as their bank accounts they have already gained entry to, targeting the information at its source. The hacker then sells the list of credit or debit card numbers to a third party, a carder, who uses the stolen information to purchase a gift card.

Most credit card companies offer cardholders protection from charges made if a credit or debit card is reported stolen, but by the time the cards are canceled the carder has often made a purchase. The gift cards are used to purchase high value goods, such as cell phones, televisions, and computers, since those goods do not require registration and can be resold later.

If the carder purchases a gift card for an electronic retailer, such as Amazon, he or she may use a third-party to receive the goods and then ship them to other locations. This limits the carder’s risk of drawing attention. The carder may also sell the goods on websites offering a degree of anonymity.
