If you believe your personal and financial identifiers have been compromised by members of the Carder.su organization, or if you are a financial institution that has had accounts compromised by this organization, please visit the U. S. Attorney for the District of Nevada’s website for additional information about the status of these cases and your rights as a victim.

In June 2011, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Florida and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), charged four individuals with immigration fraud and other related crimes.
