You are referring to low level credit card numbers and authorization codes or account balance information often bandied about as spam rather than actually worth anything even to thieves.

I assume that it's some type of stolen credit card and/or other financial information.
But what good is it?
Even assuming the data is good, does the person selling it really expect to find a buyer on a chat board? One that is knowledgeable enough to use it? And use it during it's very limited life span?
And the bigger question is, if the data really is good, why doesn't the seller just use it to steal money, rather than trying to sell it?
Personally, I think the seller would have a better chance of making a sale by becoming a Nigerian princess, or some other type of snake oil salesman.

More money can be made by selling credit card information than by actually using it. Consider, if I were to steal your credit card number (and other pertinent information), perhaps I could use that CC to spend $4k or $5k. (Eventually, the card number would get suspended or otherwise ask for security information I cannot provide.) However, I could sell that information to 100 different people for $100 each. By the time any of those people find out the card number isn't any good, or can't be used, I'm already gone.

Except you, or anyone here wouldn't want to use stolen credit card data to buy something for themselves, it isn't worth federal prison time if caught.
So you need an infrastructure to pay proxy companies for nonexistent services and cash out on that end.
That, or sell it to more reckless or less educated criminals who don't care about the risk.
