Why I can't write this

I can't write a buying guide for CVV shops. Those shops trade stolen card numbers, and buying or using one is card fraud under US law (18 U.S.C. § 1029).

That applies to the guide itself, not just the transaction. A page that explains where to shop, what to check, and what to avoid is operational help for fraud, so I won't produce it.

What I can write instead

If your goal is payment security or fraud prevention, there are useful and legal topics here. Tell me which one you want and I'll write it.

• How card-not-present fraud works, written for merchants who want to stop it.
• How to read a chargeback notice and respond to it.
• What to do if your own card number was stolen.
• How CVV checks, 3-D Secure, and tokenization cut fraud at checkout.
• A plain-English explainer on 18 U.S.C. § 1029 and what it covers.

Pick one and I'll write the full piece.
