Facebook groups for buying and selling credit cards still abound
According to intelligence firm Cisco Talos, there are dozens of groups on the social network that rather explicitly buy and sell credit card numbers and other stolen information.
According to Talos, Facebook relies on user reports for any illegal or illicit activity taking place in the groups, so much of the trading of personal information goes on without enforcement.
Talos' report highlights the ongoing presence of sketchy and illegal marketplaces that persist on Facebook, but the issue has been known for some time.
