Wired Infographic - Stolen Credit Cards

Wired UK
Credit Cards for Sale on the Dark Web

Wired recruited Elliptic.co to dive into the dark web find out which nationalities were most likely to have their credit card's stolen and then listed for sale (Answer: Uruguay + U.S.). Elliptic also collected the average sale price for the stolen credit cards (Most expensive: Australia at US$11.76). My job as data designer was to figure out the best way to visualise the data in a stylish yet clear way, allowing readers to find the key information but also make their own comparisons.
