also if people know or hear of someone doing it, it needs to be posted on the board.
watch sites out there if something looks fishy it probably is.
kinda hard to catch them before they hit your system up because we would have to join sites to see which ones are fake fronts.
the best thing for us to do is stick together and communicate more to put a stop to it. every program has there own way of flaging fraudulant acounts. now we need to help each other.
some programs might not have the advanced stats to do this but at least we can do the work for some and help eachother. using a board or something for programs.
and there are many types of programs out there not just PPS
if there is a program there is webmasters who have figured out a way to scam it. like anything else

that's not a bad idea however, other webmasters may not want to make available that their site is an easy target for fraud. by posting that information, even on a board for other webmasters to read, may give accessible information to a regular surfer or others who make a living at fraud.
a few years ago i use to post a dead beat page on a couple of paysites i have. the posted would be the persons name, what they used to sign up with (not an account number or anything like that; just cc or ck) and city and state. once this page was up, the fraud lightened up substantially and to this day, i get people calling wanting to pay off their debt. i actually got the idea from one of the bigger affiliate sites and a phone sex site that handeled massive fraud transactions.
like i said it's not a bad idea, however giving that info to other, unethical webmasters and possible surfers may turn a good idea bad. you're on the right track with that idea...it just needs to be tuned in a way that will protect us honest webmasters.
