Punchmade Dev — a rapper, producer, and investor known for his music regarding
cybercriminal activities — recently has been promoting his own online shop
selling hacked bank account as well as payment cards with established balances. 

It's never been clear if the rapper takes part in the cybercriminal activities
he raps about until his social media accounts started promoting this shop. In
addition to payment cards and bank accounts, the shop sells software for
producing counterfeit checks and identity data. The offerings are through Cash
App, PayPal, Linkable CC, Chime, Wu, and OTP BOT.



If a user decides to purchase the Cash App offering, $80 gets the buyer
credentials for a Cash App account with a balance that ranges from to as much as
$5,000. Punchmade Dev, or perhaps a team working on his behalf, assures buyers
that customer service is available via Discord and Telegram should there be any
issues.

In the past, Punchmade Dev's music, such as "Wire Fraud Tutorial," has been
taken down on streaming platforms like YouTube because law enforcement officials
complained they instructed people how to commit cybercrimes. 



It's unknown how long the shop will remain open to the public.
