What is a carding attack?
A carding attack is the unauthorized testing and use of payment card data to commit fraud. Attackers often try small purchases first to see whether a card is active before attempting larger transactions.
How can merchants spot a carding attack?
Watch for bursts of failed transactions, multiple cards tried from one device or IP address, unusual order velocities, and mismatches between billing and shipping details. Fraud-review rules and velocity limits can flag these patterns early.
What should cardholders do if they suspect carding?
Contact your card issuer immediately, review recent transactions, and request a replacement card if unauthorized activity is confirmed. Enable transaction alerts to catch suspicious charges quickly.
