Let's talk about BEING HACKED! Or, specifically, how this stuff seems to happen.

Firstly, let's define what sort of hack I'm talking about /1 I'm talking about MAGECART! Or, more generally, credit card skimming:

computerworlduk.com/security/magec…

This works as follows:

1. Attacker compromises the site
2. Attacker injects JavaScript into the site
3. JavaScript listens for and send credit card details to attacker
