One of the most prolific phishing methods currently is the so-called rockphish.
Rockphish gangs purchase many domains with registrars who are slow in taking down such fraudulently registered domains. Usually the purchases of fraudulent domains are completed with stolen credit cards that fraudsters may sell to one another in the underground market. Other services such as webhosting are purchased with stolen credit cards as well on a regular basis. The criminal gangs buy services in this manner in order to hide their own tracks.
