Question No. 2: How stolen credit cards can be used for fraud in Virtual PIN Payment System?

Answer: Virtual PIN payment system is a credit card based payment system. Both merchant and buyer need to register with First Virtual (FV). When the customer makes an order, they give the merchant their virtual PIN. The merchant then contacts First Virtual, quotes them the PIN and asks for the money. First Virtual send the customer an e-mail asking for their confirmation, customer either replies YES, NO or Fraud. If the answer indicates “fraud” it means that the goods were never ordered. In such an eventuality the First Virtual Internet Payment Server System (FVIPSS) immediately blacklists Virtual PIN so that it cannot be used in the future. In case of fraud indication it means buyer to whom PIN actually belongs has not made the order and somebody might have stolen the PIN and misused it. There is a said waiting period to answer the e-mail about indication of transaction and in case of no reply FV proceeds the payment, in such a case since no fraud indication is made by buyer the stolen Virtual PIN can then be used for transaction. Similarly a stolen credit card number can also be used to set up Virtual PIN associated with an email address controlled by the attacker to carry out bogus transactions.
