Hi,
My e-commerce site started getting hit by credit card "testers" from
Nigeria last June. My shopping cart tells me the exact IP addresses
used, and I've used the format I found online to block the
testers' (many) IP addresses. The problem? The testers are still
getting through on some of the same IP addresses. Did I do something
wrong? Are they using cloaked addresses, and if so, how can I find the
address I need to block?
We're getting a new shopping cart soon and it will have built-in
features to stop this. Our current cart is a dinosaur. However, I'm
stumped by the fact that .htaccess can't block their IPs. The rest of
my .htaccess file works great (redirects).
A sample of the code I'm using is:
order allow,deny
deny from 10.202.2.42
deny from 65.49.
deny from 81.199.53.168
allow from all
I've got this code as the first entry on my file, with the redirects
starting after it.
Thanks for any help.
Sheryl
