Re: (ot) People using your shop cart to test credit cards.
This may or may not help you, but we do not process new transactions from "strangers." We run a SaaS site, and when a new customer signs up for our site, we store the information encrypted in the database, but do not process the transaction. Our sales staff is immediately alerted via email that a new account needs to be verified. We contact the customer directly, or in some cases approve the transaction based on previous contact history. We have a very strong customer service aspect in our sales business model, and using the system of verification have reduced our fraud rate to near zero.

Re: (ot) People using your shop cart to test credit cards.
Do you think they're manually entering cards into your forms or using a script? If it's some sort of automated process possibly checking the time between steps in the checkout as well as protecting against CSRF might help. http://cfformprotect.riaforge.org/ http://www.google.com/search?q=csrf On 2/25/11 9:21 AM, Casey Dougall wrote: > Hi, > > This comes up from time to time and it's truly been a pain to > stop completely.
