So i was just wondering, do you folks think there is a method of spotting affiliates that are going to end up being carders, etc before they actually send any fraudulent signups at all?

For example, from X country, using @freemail address, amount of hits sent/date of joining program?

Do you think there is a specific set of criteria that needs to be met prior to a fraudulent transaction being made that would assist program owners catching these scammers before they commit the crime?

If so, what do you think it is or if you currently use a method, what is it?

Regards,

Lee
