Two hacking groups join their forces to create OpRobinHood which takes actions on the banks, steals money and donates it to charities and protests. This will consist of stealing credit card information from banks in order to use it for charities as mentioned.
At the released video, they claim: "Operation Robin Hood is going to return the money to those who have been cheated by our system and most importantly to those hurt by our banks. Operation Robin Hood will take credit cards and donate to the 99% as well as various charities around the globe. The banks will be forced to reimburse the people there money back."
The main purpose of the operation is making damage to banks' financial standing and reputation. According to the video: "Operation Robin Hood urges YOU, to now move your accounts into secure credit unions, before it’s too late while we hit them from the inside", however, they don't reveal about the usage of those stolen accounts, whether they will be used by them or made publicly.
