    He explained that he has mastering of the credit cards, especially of those of deceased foreigners through what he called Cyber Ghost 12. “When the credit cards matures, it would be funded through a hacked Swiss account and then any transaction done by genuine account owner through Swiss account would be manipulated by me and wired to my contrived credit car,” he told the police.
