What's the purpose of the target purchase?
- tatterdemalion 12y agoI think because it masks the "tiny purchase -> giant purchase" signal that is used to detect fraud?
- Estragon 12y agoAh, thanks.
- x0x0 12y agoa guess: probing the available balance. Presumably, you only get a couple shots at the apple store to buy that laptop because a single person isn't going to be able to try 5 cards with different names on them in a row without the police being called.
