hey, shit happens. what exactly do you "flag" fraud with? a funny name like "john q. boner" ? all the data has to be verified anyway; the cvs should do the verification of the data, so the cards in theory will always check out OK. how else would you know if it's a fraudulent user?
also.. if it costs $$ per set just make sure your site is setup correctly, so they only can buy enough credits and select like 1 set per credit. that way they cannot fuck with you. they're in, they're out, they're happy.
i'd love to know why human intervention, albeit always nice to have, is thrown into the mix when there are automated methods of validating cc's that (for the most part) are good enough for every other site out there.
