[asterisk-biz] Fraud. (here we go again)

All of the payment gateway's fraud detection features suck. We use Bank of America's gateway and best it will do is an address check. But most scammers have all that info anyway.

  If you are referring to Paypal's Fraud Protection Services, they suck and
  are way more expensive than MinFraud.  I've found MinFraud better at
  stopping fraud and giving me details to determine after the fact if an
  account is fraudulent than Paypal's FPS ever did.

  Your post would be infinitely more useful if you could provide some detail
  about this vaporware service...
