Strategic Carding: Getting the Cleanest Possible IPs
Welcome to another carding knowledge you didnt know you needed. Today were diving into the dirty world of
proxy providers and how to get every last drop of value out of their so called âcleanâ IPs.
You see most of you noobs think youve hit the jackpot when you find a
residential proxy provider that hasnt been used to death by every
script kiddie with a stolen credit card. But heres the truth: even the cleanest pools get dirtier and unusable after awhile.
The secret? Its not about finding virgin IPs. Its about understanding how these
proxy providers work and exploiting their weaknesses. Were talking
DNS manipulation sneaky little tricks that let you get past their blocks and restrictions.
This isnt some â5 Easy Steps to Card Amazon crap. Were going deep into the technical weeds exploring how to bypass URL blocks on financial sites like
Stripe and
PayPal. By the end of this guide youll be seeing
residential proxies in a whole new light.
So put on your thinking cap and leave your preconceptions at the door. Its time to learn how to turn those âclean IPs into your personal playground. This is advanced stuff but if youve got more than two brain cells to rub together youll manage. Lets fucking go!
How IPs Get Dirty
So why are your clean proxies failing? We need to look at how
proxy providers manage their IP pools. They have huge lists of IP addresses they sell to their customers as proxies.
When a
provider gets a new batch of IPs, they are clean and unused. But that doesnt last long. As soon as those IPs become available, they get used by various customers, including
carders doing fraudulent transactions.
The problem is the sheer number of users all hitting the same websites with
fraudulent activity. Each failed attempt, chargeback or suspicious transaction on an IP address leaves a mark. Those marks add up fast and degrade the IP.
The IP you just connected to has likely been used by numerous other
carders before you. They may have attempted to card various
e-commerce sites or used
payment processors like
Stripe for shady transactions. All of these activities leave
digital footprints that raise flags in
security systems.
This is why you can run an IP through
IPQS or
Scamalytics, get a clean result and still have your orders declined. Those surface level checks dont show the full history of
suspicious activity on that IP across different platforms.
An IP can go bad fast. An IP that was clean in the morning can be compromised by the afternoon due to other users. This cycle of use and abuse makes it harder to find truly clean IPs. When a
proxy provider gets a reputation for having a clean pool, more users come in and the IP quality decreases faster.
So when your order gets flagged despite using a supposedly 'clean' proxy, remember that youre not just up against
fraud detection systems. Youre also contending with the cumulative impact of every failed
carding attempt that preceded yours on that IP.
The Solution
The solution to this IP quality issue is simple: use
proxy providers that block
financial sites. These providers, that cater to more legitimate use cases, block
payment processors and
financial institutions. This limitation, while inconvenient, is a goldmine for us.
Why? Because these restrictions create a shield, preventing other
carders from tainting the IP pool. If the
proxy doesnt allow connections to
Stripe,
PayPal or
Adyen, it means no one has used these IPs for
fraudulent transactions on these platforms. The result? IP addresses that remain clean in the eyes of
payment providers and
fraud detection systems.
This approach gives us a significant advantage. Were no longer playing
Russian roulette with IPs that have been abused by every
Tom Dick and Harry trying to card their way to a new
PlayStation. Instead were working with IPs that have a clean slate when it comes to
financial transactions.
But d0ctrine if these
proxy providers dont allow access to
Stripe,
PayPal,
Adyen etc how can we use them? Good question. The answer is in some
DNS magic.
By using specific
DNS tricks we can bypass these restrictions while still benefiting from the clean reputation of these IPs. This method allows us to access the sites we need while maintaining the pristine status of our
proxy IPs.
DNS
To understand how we can get around these
financial site blocks we need to understand
DNS (
Domain Name System) and how it interacts with different
proxy types.
DNS is the internets phonebook, it translates human readable
domain names into IP addresses that computers use. Most
proxy providers implement their URL blocks at the
DNS level. Theyâre not blocking
financial sites IP addresses directly, but blocking their
DNS resolvers from translating certain
domain names.
For example when a
proxy tries to access
api.stripe.com the
providers DNS resolver returns a blank instead of
Stripes actual IP address. Thatâs why you canât access these sites through these âcleanâ proxies under normal circumstances.

Hereâs where
proxy types come in. With
HTTP proxies DNS resolution happens on the
proxy server side, making it hard to get around their blocks. But with
SOCKS5 proxies we have a golden opportunity.
SOCKS5 proxies operate at a lower
network level, we have more flexibility in how
traffic is handled. By default youâre using the
proxyâs DNS resolver. But - and this is the key - with
SOCKS5 we can change that. We can configure our system to use a different
DNS resolver, one that doesnât have these blocks in place.
So we can use these clean, untainted
SOCKS5 proxies and still access the
financial sites we need. Weâre basically bypassing the
proxyâs phonebook and using our own.
The Process
Now that we covered the theory letâs get into the nitty gritty of actually implementing this bypass. Youâll need three things:
- An antidetect browser with DNS changing capabilities
- A proxy provider that blocks financial sites
- A reliable external DNS resolver
For
antidetect browsers GoLogin and
Linken Sphere are good options. Both have
DNS configuration options for our method.
For
proxy providers look for ones that block financial sites.
Oxylabs and
IPRoyal are good examples. Their
restrictions which are usually a pain in the ass become our advantage in this scenario.
For our
external DNS weâll use
Cloudflareâs resolver (1.1.1.1). Itâs fast, reliable and most importantly not associated with any
proxy services.
Hereâs the step-by-step process:
- Set up your antidetect profile:
- Launch your antidetect browser (GoLogin or Linken Sphere)
- Create a new browser profile
- In the network settings find the DNS configuration option
- Enter Cloudflares DNS: 1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1 as primary and secondary
- Configure your SOCKS5 proxy:
- In the same profile settings locate the proxy configuration
- Select SOCKS5 as the proxy type
- Enter the details provided by your proxy service (Oxylabs or IPRoyal)
- Ensure 'Use proxy DNS' is disabled - this is crucial
- Pruebe su configuraciĂłn :
- Inicie el perfil del navegador
- Visite ipleak.net para confirmar que estĂĄ usando la IP del proxy
- Intente acceder a api.stripe.com
Cuando accedas a
api.stripe.com , deberĂas ver una
respuesta JSON similar a esta:
Texto oculto: no se puede citar.
Esta
respuesta es exactamente lo que queremos ver. Significa que te has conectado correctamente al servidor API
de Stripe a pesar de que el proveedor de proxy lo bloquea. El mensaje de error es irrelevante: no estamos intentando realizar una llamada API vĂĄlida. Lo importante es que hayas recibido una
respuesta de
Stripe .
Si ves este mensaje,
felicitaciones . Acabas de eludir el bloqueo de DNS
del proveedor de proxy . Ahora te estĂĄs conectando a Stripe a travĂ©s de una IP que, segĂșn todos los indicios, no deberĂa poder acceder a Ă©l.
Si no ve este mensaje y, en su lugar, aparece un error de conexiĂłn o un tiempo de espera agotado, algo no estĂĄ bien. Vuelva a verificar la
configuraciĂłn de DNS y
la configuraciĂłn del proxy . AsegĂșrese de que la opciĂłn "Usar DNS proxy" estĂ© deshabilitada y de que estĂ© usando un
proxy SOCKS5 , no
HTTP .
A partir de ahora, es posible que tengas una direcciĂłn IP limpia para tus
operaciones de carding . Sin embargo, no te confĂes todavĂa. Si bien este mĂ©todo garantiza que tu IP no haya sido utilizada para
fraudes financieros , no garantiza una limpieza general.
Vuelve a comprobar tu IP con servicios como
IPQS y
Scamalytics . El hecho de que esté limpia con
los procesadores de pago no significa que estĂ© limpia en todos los ĂĄmbitos. Estas IP podrĂan haber sido utilizadas para otras cosas, como
botnets o
campañas de spam .
