Oh I'm sure they don't care. I was merely curious where other's thought this stuff will end up.
I never saw that original Domino's article but I can vouch for its complete validity and accuracy. I'm sure carders are still checking CCs on Dominos too. CC checkers are a hot commodity and carders are creative people. RedBox is another good example like Domino's.
Anecdote: In 2008, Obama's donation gateway was also heavily used. I don't believe that was nearly as reported, though.
Was that the Adam Pisces scam that was going on? (Can't tell since NYT is paywalled). There's a great non-paywalled ReplyAll podcast about that (episode #141)
I think that the 'checking stolen CC numbers' is the most convincing theory about Adam Pisces but ultimately the ReplyAll host concluded that it was an attacker looking for vulnerabilities in the Domino's online ordering system.
At one point the Domino's app was being used to facilitate credit card fraud: https://www.nytimes.com/2014/12/06/nyregion/pizza-orders-rev...
