Well, they have the IP, they also have the CVV2 number from the back of the card. That means at one point that person has to have it in their hands.
From personal experience you give the person the old "Whenever someone makes a purchase on the Internet the billing company MUST capture the IP of the individual making the purchase. An IP is a unique number given to each computer that connects to the Internet. This number can be traced back to the exact computer that made the transaction. If you claim that someone used your card in an effort to avoid paying for your subscription, by law you are committing fraud.
The thing is, the majority of people will not have a CLUE WTF you are talking about and it sounds so "techie" to them. You would not believe the number of chargebacks were prevented in the past using this line to different degrees. Most of them would actually say "uhm, well, look, I...uhm....it is a small amount of money...uhm...not really worth all the trouble...can you just make sure I am not billed again?
Those that did not make the purchase are usually the ones that say "wow, that is great, hopefully they can trace down this f*cker that used my card and put him away". Those are the people that you can be pretty confident were telling the truth. The people trying to scam, a great deal of them panic when they hear about IP's and back off.
