Are cardholders of cards used by CC lads ever accomplices?

I was just thinking about this, and while I've never seen it brought up here, it certainly would seem to be possible. If the cardholder gets reimbursed for the fraudulent charges, having the lad give out their CC info, get a payment through Western Union, and they split the money, leaving the merchant holding the bag...this seems like it would be something lads might do.

It's possible, but most of these lads ultimately get their cc #s from bulk sales on the dark web. There are a number of specialty shop where you can buy as many as thousands of dumps at a time. Krebsonsecurity has some good articles on carding and card shops.
Anyhoo, that's where I believe most of them get their numbers.
Plus, most lads are so greedy I can't see them sharing or splitting their profits unless it was absolutely necessary. Wink
