MagSpoof emulates a magnetic stripe by quickly changing the polarization of an electromagnet, producing a magnetic field similar to that of a normal magnetic stripe as if it's being swiped. (CVV is specific to Visa, and each issuer has their own name such as CSC, CVC, etc.) The CVV is stored on the magstripe, while the CVV2 is printed on a card. Note that the CVV is different than the CVV2.
By taking each 5 bits and reading the first 4 bits, we can now begin extracting the credit card number (and other data, such as expiration date, discretionary data, CVV/CVC/CSC/CID/CAV depending on card type). Track 2 is 5 bits per character, least significant bit first, and the 5th bit is an odd parity bit. We ignore all the initial 0's until the very first 1. First, let's flip the card 180 degrees (looking at it upside down), and read it as least significant bit first. Two solid stripes is a 1 and a stripe followed by a space is a 0. Let's take a look:Īs you can see on my card, I've written out the bits above the strips. Track 2 stores fewer bits than Track 1, so it has a lower linear density (bits per inch). Financial cards with magnetic strips can have up to three tracks, however credit cards only have two tracks (Tracks 1 and 2). The magnetic elements in the magstripe attract the iron oxide and after pulling it out, you can actually see each bit in the tracks. In the video, I actually dip my credit card into a bag of iron oxide. What's so cool about magstripes is that while the magnetic strips inside are weak, they're still strong enough to attract small ferrous particles and wide enough that we can fully extract all data from a magstripe or credit card with the naked eye. Magnetic stripes (magstripes) are in fact magnetic. Live demonstration and more details available in the video:

MagSpoof can be used as a traditional credit card and simply store all of your credit cards (and with modification, can technically disable chip requirements) in various impressive and exciting form factors, or can be used for security research in any area that would traditionally require a magstripe, such as readers for credit cards, drivers licenses, hotel room keys, automated parking lot tickets, etc. MagSpoof does allow you to perform research in other areas of magstripes, microcontrollers, and electromagnetism, as well as learn about and create your own devices similar to other existing, commercial technologies such as Samsung MST and Coin. Simply having a credit card number and expiration is not enough to perform transactions.
The Chip-and-PIN and Amex information is not implemented and using MagSpoof requires you to have/own the magstripes that you wish to emulate. Note: MagSpoof does not enable you to use credit cards that you are not legally authorized to use. It can work "wirelessly", even on standard magstripe/credit card readers, by generating a strong electromagnetic field that emulates a traditional magnetic stripe card. MagSpoof is a device that can spoof/emulate any magnetic stripe or credit card. Easy to build using Arduino or other common parts.Supports all three magnetic stripe tracks, and even supports Track 1+2 simultaneously.Correctly predicts Amex credit card numbers + expirations from previous card number (code not included).Can disable Chip-and-PIN (code not included).Works on traditional magstripe readers wirelessly (no NFC/RFID required).Allows you to store all of your credit cards and magstripes in one device.
The reader follows the HID Protocol (it is not CCID) and its only function is to get the UID of the card tapped the output in the document editor. (The ACR1281U-C2 is a contactless reader especially designed to get the UID of any ISO14443 Parts 1-4 Type A and B-compliant contactless card in an efficient way. This application aims to save the ACR1281U-C2 configuration which in turn determine the pattern of the UID Output. This tool is used to send and execute APDU command scripts. This tool also serves as a polling tool that checks the presence and absence of the card in a reader.
This tool has the functionality to read and display the smart card reader and the smart card details. This program can be used to silently monitor ACS PC/SC smart card readers used in a system and to automatically connect to the smart cards when they are inserted into the reader.ĪCS PC/SC Smart Card Readers (Contact/ Contactless/ Dual-interface)
