A close look into the $17.3 million-worth dark web market
Prices for American data vary from 99 cents to more than $300
A new study by NordVPN analyzed one of the dark web markets that has illegally sold more than 720,000 items and data pieces for a total of $17.3 million. Prices for American items or pieces of data varied from 99 cents to $342. The most expensive merchandise was bank account login data, which had an average price of $90. This is 15 times more than the cheapest category — U.S. payment card data — which had an average price of $6.
Among the items found globally were passports, personal IDs, driving licenses, email, payment card data, mobile phone numbers, online accounts, bank account logins, crypto accounts, and more.
