What is Deetsing?

Welcome to the wild world of “deetsing” – a term that's been buzzing around the internet like a bee on a bank heist.

Basically, it stands for "bank details"

But what exactly is deetsing? Think of it as the digital-age pickpocketing, only it's your bank account that's getting stolen, not your wallet.

'Deetsing', is the art of swiping funds using bank details that don't belong to you. Typically the account owner doesn't find out until it is too late.

Deetsing Examples:

Let’s break it down with an example:

Say, Jim manages to snag Jane Doe's bank deets via a website on the dark web that is selling her card. He hops online and buys whatever he wants using Jane's account.

Criminals tend to target wealthy people and view it as a “victimless crime”

Jane's at home, oblivious, while Joe's out there, acting like he's hit the jackpot.

That's deetsing – it’s quick, it’s quiet, and it hits where it hurts.

In the old days, thieves needed masks and a getaway car. Now, all they need is a laptop, a website, and some stolen numbers.

Stay alert, stay safe, and keep those deets under lock and key!
