Anyone using FraudRecord?

Generally ask for a authorization from the PayPal domain if the name does not match. It has won 100% of disputes/chargebacks

I would rather someone use their chosen English name, even if its fake, than search for or type xluea sagjasdkgj asuioohuilop

'resellers' pretending to be neutral etc.

 

Those are my favorite! I like to remind them that resellers are bound to our own AUP/TOS, the same as clients.

The Indonesian ones get rough, specially the ones with like 4 first names.

mysql> SELECT COUNT(id) FROM tblclients WHERE country = 'ID' AND status = 'Active';

+-----------+

| COUNT(id) |

+-----------+

|       307 |

+-----------+

1 row in set (0.03 sec)

Heh, I have more problems validating the ones that only have a surname (no separate first name/etc).  But, I've gotten fairly adept at picking out troublemakers.. for awhile, the company slogan was Nobody hides from Pony  ^_^

FraudRecord is an awesome tool... TOOL. It's not the end all to fraud, but it is still extremely useful. We've been using it for a while and use it as a guide, not as gospel. There are certain providers we will hold their reports in higher regard based on previous reports, company reputation (in my eyes), and how well written the report is.

Then again if a client has a report from 4 different hosts all saying "chargeback" then I will be more willing to take that as a warning versus 1 host reporting "fake".

Here's the typical method of my order review:

All accounts:

• Check Maxmind.
• Validate client info.
• Check client info against payment info.

If suspicious:

• Search client info against popular search engines and forums.

Last:

• Run FraudCheck.
