ACCOUNT TAKE OVER
Account take over or simply 'ATO" refers to the act of taking over someone's account (Bank or Financial Account). ORAccount-Take-Over is when a
fraudster poses as a genuine customer, gains complete control of an account and then makes thousands of dollars in unauthorized transactions, sometimes even maxing out the account and clearing out all the funds available. Lucky for you, I am
an expert in ATOing accounts and today I will teach you everything there is to know about this fraud technique.
Now this is where things start to get really interesting, and where the big money lies in. You ever wanted to card thousands of dollars’ worth of electronics and resell them for a quick, big profit? With this method this is completely possible, however that doesn’t necessarily mean it is easy.
To even attempt an "ATO", you will need to understand a couple of things. First of all, is "NEVER" use CVV checkers that charge cards. This will burn cards instantly. personally i recommend You get a good Checker that doesn't charge your cards or charges few bucks like $0.01 cent for dead cards and $0.02 cents for live cards.
In ATOing I personally prefer to simply call the bank myself using a burner phone, spoofed with the CVV holder’s phone and check the balance, credit access line, recent transactions and more using the automated prompts. There are great service that allow you to pay them in BTC. Alternatively, you can use the service Many fraudsters use.
Any transaction that involves an Account-Take-Over are transactions above $300 dollars and up in value. Usually below $2000 however, as most cards will get flagged for transactions above that number regardless of the ATO. You can always make multiple transactions of $1000-$2000 however with ATOed accounts through the span of a few days to a few weeks and max out the card.
If you call a bank using your burner and the automated prompt tells you the account has been closed for security reasons or the system automatically transfers you to an operator when you type the card number, that means the card is dead and useless, ditch it and move on. Keep in mind that some banks will require the victim’s SSN to access the account balance and menu prompt. I recommend that you note down everything the automated prompt will give you including most importantly, the account balance, credit line access and recent transactions (up to 10 in case they ask you for it).
Once you have called the bank and checked everything, you should have the victim’s balance, credit access line and recent transactions. With this information you know how much you can spend on that card. However, there is still one more
obstacle we need to tackle, this is the fact that most high security websites such as Amazon, Ebay, Bestbuy, Neiman Marcus, Stockx, Saks… will refuse to ship to an
address that is not in file with the bank. To solve this, we will take over the victim’s account (ATO).
To do this, we will call the bank, talk to an operator and first request a change of the primary phone number. Remember, this will require SOCIAL ENGINEERING, which is something that requires training and experience. Don’t act nervous, act like you own the account. Remember you are the account owner, why would you be nervous? This is your account. Would you ever call your bank and act nervous? I doubt. To do this, you will need to have the following information from your victim in hand and preferably memorized.
