Site Aims To Be the "Google" of the Underweb

tsu doh nimh writes "A new service in the cyber underground aims to be the Google search of underground Web sites, connecting buyers to a vast sea of shops that offer an array of dodgy goods and services, from stolen credit card numbers to identity information and anonymity tools. From the story: 'A glut of data breaches and stolen card numbers has spawned dozens of stores that sell the information. The trouble is that each shop requires users to create accounts and sign in before they can search for cards. Enter MegaSearch, which lets potential buyers discover which fraud shops hold the cards they're looking for without having to first create accounts at each store.'"

mywot.com and malwarebytes blocked it!

Out of curiously, I tried to visit MegaSearch.cc.
1. My 1st block of the site: http://www.mywot.com/en/scorecard/megasearch.cc
2. My 2nd block of the site: My Malwarebytes stopped the site from loading.
I have no desire to visit this site but thought you guys may want to use my apps to help you keep out of trouble.
Just a thought...

Well, the site is publicly accessible at http://megasearch.cc./ [megasearch.cc.] The guy even has his Jabber contact up. It's actually kind of suspicious and makes me wonder if it's all a joke or honeypot.

I thought the whole thing screams "honeypot". I doubt any of the experiences bad guys will fall for this... which means they'll catch a lot of newbies and people who otherwise wouldn't have tried this line of "work". I wonder if they could get in trouble for entrapment? Hmm. Interesting. Although, I could be totally wrong, I'd still definitely avoid the place like the plague if I was looking to buy or sell there.
