ENJOY FULL LEAK
Swarmshop - is an underground mid-size "neighborhood" store for stolen personal and payment records. The cardshop has been operating since at least 2019, as the resource was first mentioned on underground forums in April 2019.
The user nicknamed "Swarmshop" is likely a cardshop administrator as they post information about updating databases and answers user questions on various forums under different nicknames. It is also known that cardshop admins are Russian-speaking.
By March 2021, it had more than 12K user base and over 600K payment card records on sale. The total amount deposited on all the accounts was at $18,145.73 – users of card shops do not store large amounts of money on their accounts and top up the balance to make payments if necessary.
This information was obtained from the data exposed in the March 2021 breach. Interestingly, it was not the first time Swarmshop has been targeted by fellow hackers. In January 2020, the cardshop's records were leaked on an underground forum.
