Anti-Fraud, Proxy, Telephone Verification System
I am actively trying to eliminate fraud and proxy servers. I spent the last several hours looking up what I can do.
I want to make sure whatever I do, isn't intrusive to the user experience, so this is what I am purposing (FOR NEW USERS)
? Add telephone # in sign up form
? Add Proxstop
? Add Telephone lookup
? Add a spot where I can look up a user, it will show their IP location, their telephone location and what prox stop says about them. If anything looks fishy, the user then has to pass telesign (Give me information on that after they complete it)
So basically when a new user signs up now, they will have to enter their phone #. That phone # is then looked up by a system that I can buy. The phone # will give me information that I can use later on like the location of the phone etc.. I can then compare that to the IP the new user used to login.
Then I'll get a report on the likely hood the user is using a proxy server.
Next, if anything looks fishy, or they are a new user earning points, I will then do the final step, send them to a telephone verification system which actually calls you giving you a code to the number you used when you signed up.
So, to recap.. If you are a new user you will have to pass these new tests (If you look suspicious or at anytime other users suspect something)
- Proxy Check
- Phone # location vs. IP you signed up
- Telephone call verification
