32,000 TranzactCard accounts breached, user data for sale
TranzactCard has allegedly been breached.
As per a January 28th post on BreachForums, a new user going by “Aleksey_Petrov” is selling 48,000 credit card numbers submitted to TranzactCard.
At time of publication the TranzactCard breach remains unconfirmed. “Aleksey_Petrov” however claims to have obtained details connected to ~32,000 TranzactCard accounts.
These include email addresses, user names (DBOs and customers), card details, purchased gift card details, phone numbers, passwords, IP addresses and “many more”.
TranzactCard’s (now likely changed) backend database and website login credentials are also included with the sale.
Across the 32,000 TranzactCard accounts breached, “Aleksey_Petrov” claims to have ~48,000 credit card numbers with CVV.
An unverified sample of the breached data has been posted to JustPaste.
At time of publication there have been no public announcements from TranzactCard acknowledging the breach.
TranzactCard hasn’t published a press-release on its website since October 2023. The last post on TranzactCard’s official FaceBook page is dated January 23rd.
TranzactCard’s website linked official Twitter profile doesn’t exist.
When I was asking how many people would be stupid enough to give their CC details to Tranzact after the lies deceit and manipulations I couldn’t guess.
This answers the question.
Ayo Richard, how the fuck we gon’ honor all these Z-Bucks you keep giving out?!
I’ve got an idea, Peter…
Man are there a lot of dumb people out there willing to give their details to just anybody.
Hackers bypassed the credit/debit cards and went straight for Z-Bucks followed by a Z-Club shopping spree!
It will be very interesting to see how TranzactCard handles the news of this breach. Their response should be significant.
As soon as the situation is assessed the 48,000 credit card holders need to be warned to take immediate steps to defend themselves.
Existing cards need to be canceled, replacement cards need to be ordered.
Needless to say the longer it takes for TranzactCard to address this issue the worse it will be for their members.
Lets hope they act soon.
Ngl, this is a genius way of wiping out what everyone (might be) owed.
I’m really confused. I thought all the banks turned down Richard and Peter. Are we talking about all the personal credit cards that people used when they originally signed up to purchase a “Franchise”?
The “Leaders” are still doing Zoom calls as if this is fake news…….
This is personal information submitted by TranzactCard DBOs and members, stored by TranzactCard in a MYSQL database.
Separate to the banking issue. Although if a US bank did attach itself to TranzactCard there’d be potential significant liability on their part (I’m not versed in this area of finance law to further comment on specifics).
The alleged data breach throws shade on TranzactCard’s Ever.
More scheme where DBOs/Members pay TranzactCard $4.99 to register their personal credit/debit cards in return for Z-Bucks.
Not sure how it makes people dumb? People submit info on web all day long. guess you never bought anything over internet…
Submitting your credit card to an Amateur scam shitshow like Tranzact is a bit… dumb.
Like just put your CVV on facebook why don’t you.
TranzactCard did not issue a press release announcing their bank termination last year.
TranzactCard did not issue a press release announcing Chief Compliance Officer Joyce Mehlman quit.
TranzactCard did not issue a press release when ‘partnering’ with Mehlman client, Bangor Savings.
TranzactCard did not issue a press release announcing any new bank partner/sponsor.
TranzactCard did not issue a press release announcing any CIO to protect digital assets.
TranzactCard will not issue a press release when DBO/Member personal information as well as debit/credit card details are hacked from their server.
Interesting way to walk this scam to end with their exit strategy.
Next up: Class action lawsuits claiming millions in damages. Management’s never ending lies and monumental screw ups is record breaking.
FTC and Utah prosecutors are surely digging deep into this pyramid scam now with its 150,000 victims.
Eric Allen held a call yesterday. One small quote:
That was it. No mention of members compromised credit cards.
They’re gearing up for a big announcement this Saturday, I’ll see if I can get on the call.
So are they offering credit monitoring/protection services due their security breach. Any legit company offers this, if they were to be breached.
@GlimDropper
TranzactCard is getting cyber attacked because they did not adequately secure DBO/Member personal information and credit/debit/cvv data on their servers.
It is all likely a distraction being played out by the company. They likely put out the rumor on that message board in order to confuse its members as their Z-bucks were taken back by the company.
Then the company can falsely blame a breach, and an apology for the missing z-bucks and sorry, but we have no way of verifying any z-bucks in any account, so you are S.O.L.
Absolutely brilliant, until they are sued and a geek squad member reveals there was no breach, after going through their computers. Just the company lying to the lemmings yet again.

Certainly looks like they were breached to me.

In Arizona a lot of people were scammed I one of them If someone is already doing a Class action lawsuits claiming, all the Arizona people would like to join on this Tranzact card and finmore issue.
