It Turns Out THIS Is More Useful To Hackers Than Your Stolen Credit Card Details by Queenett1997: 10:55am On Jan 23, 2016
STOLEN logins and hacked online accounts can all be bought on the Dark Web, but some of the prices might surprise you.

Netflix and PayPal accounts are some of the most sought after details available on the Dark Web

Cybercriminals aren't interested in buying stolen credit card information.
Hacked Uber, PayPal and Netflix accounts have become much more valuable to criminals, according to a study by security company Trend Micro.
Uber logins – which allow buyers take free taxi rides – are more expensive than Netflix credentials and credit card account numbers.
According to CNBC, stolen Uber login details can sell for some $4 each in marketplaces on the Dark Web. That's only £2.80, but still significantly more than other items.
Research from Trend Micro revealed that Netflix logins cost some $0.76 each, 53p converted, credit cards numbers for $0.22, or 15p converted.
PayPal accounts with at least $500 in credit are one of the most expensive items available on the Dark Web, an anonymous portion of the world wide web not indexed by any search engines. These logins have an average resale value of $6.43, £4.50 converted.
Meanwhile, stolen Facebook logins cost an average of $3.02 each, some £2.11.
Users who purchase stolen Uber credentials can book taxi rides, which are then charged to the real account owner.
