This case is probably not a great example to use, because the woman's card wasn't stolen. Her account at Walmart was hacked, and the purchase was made there with the shipment sent to a different address.
- mcv 3y agoWhy would that not make it a good example? It's still a case of fraud, enabled by the lack of security on credit card payments. The payment hadn't been authorised by the woman.
- JaggedJax 3y agoThis looks like an easy thing for Walmart to prevent if they bothered. On Amazon if you add a new shipping address, you can't ship to it until you re-verify your credit card CVV. With just that simple check this attack would be blocked (unless they steal the entire CC info of course).
