[Krebs on Security] Deconstructing the $9.84 Credit Card Hustle

Krebs on Security has posted a new item.

Over the holidays, I heard from a number of readers who were seeing strange,
unauthorized charges showing up on their credit and debit cards for $9.84. Many
wondered whether this was the result of the Target breach; I suppose I asked for
this, having repeatedly advised readers to keep a close eye on their bank
statements for bogus transactions. It's still not clear how consumers' cards are
being stolen here, but the fraud appears to stem from an elaborate network of
affiliate schemes that stretch from Cyprus to India and the United Kingdom.
