The author mentions the library Bluebird, which I think is a fantastic library. The 'mapSeries' method it offers is also very useful when iterating over an array of values that need to be 'promisified' and mapped in the

The end result in credit card fraud is purchasing something and using a mule to send the fraudulently purchased item to a fencer, who sells it for cash. Having a requirement that all vendors use chip-enabled cards simply increases the cost
