On Wednesday, the United States offered $ 10 million in remuneration for a Russian citizen accused of organizing credit card transactions that were stolen.

Kulkov Denis Gennadievich, according to the indictment disclosed by the American District Court in New York, was charged with fraudulent activities with devices, computer intrusion and money laundering.

Kulkov, aged 43 , is accused of creating an electronic platform Try2Check, which helps cybercriminals confirm the relevance of these stolen credit cards, namely, whether they are valid at the time of verification.

"As such, Try2Check was the main intermediary in the sale of information about stolen credit cards, processing at least tens of millions of card numbers every year," said the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of New York.
She stated that the United States and partners in Austria and Germany had to work together for a long time to get the sites of the criminal Try2Check platform from the Web.

According to the indictment, the Try2Check platform Kulkov allegedly created in 2005 and made it the main instrument for trading stolen credit cards illegally.

Try2Check for card verification allegedly got access to the servers of a large US payment processor unauthorized.

According to the US Attorney's Office, Kulkov earned at least $ 18 million through the Try2Check operation, buying a Ferrari and other luxury goods.

Potentially, Kulkov faces up to 20 years in prison.
