Zeus Carding World Template. Change the playing side of the botnet

It's clear that the use cybercriminals wasted much time thinking about new ways of propagation/infection and strategies for social engineering with the aim of attracting more attention as "slaves" on the Internet :-)

The design, as the template name suggests, refers to offenses involving unlawful use of numbers and credit cards by a third party (carding) and the picture does justice to it.
