What is ccStock?
ccStock is a card shop with high validity rates that not only caters to buyers but also sellers. Sellers have their own admin panel where they can manage their offers. ccStock is strictly limited to credit cards, though – there are no other products you can buy on this site. You can find the onion link for CC2BTC to the right of this article.
The registration is clean and simple, you need to state no other information other than your login name and chosen password. After that you have immediate access to the databases containing the credit cards, there is no deposit necessary to browse the market. However, your account will be deleted again after just two hours if you have no balance on it. There is no minimum balance stated, just that accounts without balance will be automatically deleted after two hours.
While this card shop offers a decent amount of cards with especially high validity rates (over 95%) it is certainly interesting for buyers but since users can list their own CCs, it is also attractive for sellers. Sellers have access to their own administration panel where they can set their own prices, and submit requests about fund withdrawal, price change and new cards import. Currently, ccTock takes a 10% fee on all cards sold by third parties.
Security Recommendations
Same as with all darknet sites the usual security recommendations apply. Most importantly: stay anonymous. Use the TOR browser only and don’t use the TOR browser for any regular (non-darknet) browsing.
Before visiting the site with the TOR browser, you should switch off JavaScript (Options -> Privacy & Security -> Security Level -> Switch to “Safest”). ccStock is explicitly designed so that you don’t need JavaScript which allows you to increase your security by switching it off.
Ideally, you have a dedicated system or at least a dedicated VM for all your darknet activities. Keep your darknet PGP keys and other credentials limited to that system only, do not mix it with any activities that would expose your identity.
Treat your dedicated system like a work-system: Only install the software necessary for your operations do not install anything for entertainment or other purposes. Subsequently, resist the urge to browse Twitter, Reddit or any other social media sites while you have downtime. For this always use your regular system.
For additional system security, we recommend you run a secure operating system like Tails or Whonix on your dedicated system for darknet activities. We also recommend using a VPN as an additional security measure since TOR will only anonymize your browsing sessions but not other traffic.
Especially when using any public WiFi hotspots you should always use a VPN when accessing the Internet since you don’t know whether the access point is compromised. A VPN ensures that all of your traffic, no matter what application, will always be strongly encrypted when passing the access point, this protecting yourself not only from eavesdropping but also possible identity theft.
ccStock Summary
ccStock is a site that is especially interesting for sellers if the 10% fee is acceptable. And because third-party sellers can offer their own cards on this site, ccStock acts more like a digital cc market than a typical card shop. For buyers, this is great news, because they get a variety of different offers on this card shop. As always, when visiting any darknet vendor shop make sure to only use trusted links, such as the onion link for ccStock carding shop on the top right.
