So what better way to promote a new website than giving away one million credit card numbers? All the credit card numbers and details are stolen of course. The credit card numbers are being offered complete with all the data needed to make a purchase online: credit card numbers, expiration dates, CVVs, names, countries, states, cities, addresses, zip codes, and email and phone numbers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">First reported by BleepingComputer, the group behind the newly set up AllWorldCards website is promoting their new \u201cbusiness\u201d on multiple hacker forums. In their forum posts, the criminals behind the AllWorldCards website said that all the credit card numbers and details were stolen between 2018 and 2019.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Criminals aren&#8217;t stupid.
