During processing the user requests, the package looks for URLs related to checkouts using services:
- credomatic.compassmerchantsolutions.com
- checkout.baccredomatic.com
and exfiltrates given credit card numbers, verification codes etc. Interestingly, it checks even 3DS responses.

Clone of the legitimate "cloudscraper" package.
