Analysis: Fighting Card Counterfeiting

The takedown of a website selling counterfeit payment cards could potentially lead to a broader fraud crackdown, one fraud-fighting expert says. Authorities say some 400 “members” used the website, fakeplastic.net, paying for the goods with digital currency. The website was taken over by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the U.S. Postal Inspection Service on Dec. 5, 2013. Three men now face federal charges for the roles they allegedly played in running the site, according to the Department of Justice.”]
