Hi i have a suggestion on how to fight payments from stolen credit cards, fake paypal accounts and other forms of fraugulent payments. Usually those individuals signup for a new account, verify their account through email link and then use fake credit card.
The idea is to manually enable payments options per account.
The default on the sign up page would be no payment options available. Once is activated customer can contact us or we can activate payment options in next 24 hours if everything looks ok ( no
[email protected] type email addresses!!! ).
For this we would need an additional field for payment options - yes, no - in database.
What you guys think?
Personally i'm getting this fraud twice a week, and it's sucks dealing with paypal.
