The traffic is stolen when it is the ripest, when the surfer has pulled out the CC and is getting ready to join.

NATS based sites also face the same issue: signup/signup.php is the weakness, easily spotted and used as a trigger for substitutions or redirections. Traffic sucked away from those pages would be primo stuff.

It's not hard to see how it can be done because much of the industry is now working with the same small set of tools.
It's not clear what solution you are proposing... Are you proposing that different sites would have different ccbill urls? For example: 26512342.ccbill.com, 36542134.ccbill.com, etc

If so, it would take at most perhaps a day or 2 for spyware guys to figure this out, and then they would just trigger on any subdomain on ccbill.com
