Why I can’t write this comparison

Selling CVV numbers is card fraud. A CVV is the security code printed on a payment card, and it is not a product anyone can legally sell. Platforms that trade CVV data exist to move stolen card information, and a review that ranks them would help people commit financial crime.

The harm is direct. Stolen card data leads to unauthorized charges, chargebacks, account freezes, and hours of cleanup for cardholders. In the US, trafficking in stolen payment card data can trigger federal charges under 18 U.S.C. § 1029, and state laws add more penalties. A page that compares “reviewed platforms” for selling CVVs would work as a how-to guide for that crime, even if it used careful language.

I can help with legal, useful content in the same space. For example:

  • A merchant guide to card-not-present fraud detection and chargeback prevention.
  • A comparison of legitimate payment processors and their fraud tools.
  • An explainer on PCI DSS requirements for storing and handling card data.
  • A fraud-awareness article for consumers on protecting CVV codes and spotting card skimming.

If you want one of those, tell me the audience and I’ll write it in the same inverted-pyramid style.
