SickPuppy Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 Watch out for IP addresses from Mexico we are getting 10 to 12 fraudulent orders a month all originating from Tijuana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
proclan Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 We had that going on about a week or so ago none of them made it through due to the billing address and ip being over 10k miles apart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dimitrifrom31 Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 blocked several countries IP's (even if they can use proxy) due to that. Got ways less fraud orders now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SickPuppy Posted May 6, 2010 Author Share Posted May 6, 2010 blocked several countries IP's (even if they can use proxy) due to that. Got ways less fraud orders now. We actually get customers from Mexico so I don't want to ban IP addresses by country. SWAT 4 is a popular game south of the border. The CC processor is identifying the orders as fraud. It is more of a nuisance than anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SickPuppy Posted May 24, 2010 Author Share Posted May 24, 2010 I would say that 8 out of 10 of the SWAT orders we receive are fraud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

{-SMAKU-}_MotorMouth Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Because they use a CC with an American address and almost all of them are showing the same location state. The IP and billing address along with the phone number we call do not match. One guy we called didn't know they had his card number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possible a few fakes slipped through, and they told all thier friends, kinda like the prepaid phonecards used to be back in the day . I honestly never have any issues with that. I have multiple swat4 1.0 and 1.1 services running and all pay promptly tbh..knock on wood Still would love todo a gsp blacklist :} Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What makes you think they are all fradulent? The address they use to order the server is a U.S. address but the IP is always from Tijuana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
