In the video uploaded to YouTube, the hacker explained how he began his career in the criminal world, saying: “I got kicked out of home, I started using drugs namely methamphetamine and I wanted to make money.
“My drug dealer at the time challenged me to learn how to do carding.”
From a hotel room, the scammer would buy people’s credit card information on the dark web and use it to purchase electronics online.
He continued: “I would sit in a hotel room then I would make a whole bunch of orders and then I'd run around with fake IDs and go click and collect the orders.
“In the corner would just be like TVs, laptops, iPhones, just stacks of phones and I just put it on the local seller pages for real cheap and people would meet up with me.”
The con artist claimed that he’d make $5,000 a day and would blow it on penthouses and drugs.
Over the course of his career, he believes he has spent around $5 million.
When William asked him if he feels bad for stealing people’s money, the hacker replied: “Not really, no, cuz I know they get it back. The bank just gives them the money back.”
However, this is always the case as William explains to the camera that in the instance of debit card fraud, ‘you have to contact your bank and they undergo an investigation which can take up to 30 days to resolve and could be a massive pain to everyday people’.
Viewers of the clip took to the YouTube comment section to share their reactions to the hacker.
One user wrote: “Bro bout to realize my man was hacking his computer the whole time the interview was goin down.”
While another person had a useful suggestion, saying: “Just leave your card locked when you are not using it! I been doing that for years, it’s sometimes a hassle to unlock it when you forgot at the register lol.”
This prompted a reply from William, who wrote: “That’s actually an easy suggestion. I do this as well on some of my accounts.”
