Student swindles online credit card processor to pay capitation fees

Amit Tiwari had many names, bank accounts and clients. None of them were for real.
With a plan that was both ingenious and naive, the 21-year-old engineering student from Pune tried to defraud a Mumbai-based credit card processing company, CC Avenue, of nearly Rs 900,000.
Amit Tiwari found a way to bypass them.
In May 2002, Col Vikram Tiwari signed up for CC Avenue's services. In November, he requested the company to deal with his son, Amit, who offered Web designing services on www.mafiaz.com.
CC Avenue's security team confirmed his credentials through bank signature verification, driving license and his HDFC Bank debit card. Everything was genuine.
Amit processed several transactions, worth Rs 311,508, via CC Avenue from November 2002 to February 2003. Then the transactions stopped.
In April 2003, CC Avenue began receiving charge-backs from the credit card holders, who denied using mafiaz.com's Web designing service.
Amit had assumed the identities of these 'customers', and purchased mafiaz.com's services with credit card details that he found on the Net.
He was both the buyer and the seller.
Calls to Amit's house in Lucknow went unanswered. Legal notices came back unclaimed. Amit had disappeared without a trace.
