We recently were tied up in the listbomb issue that's been plaguing folks
for a while. For those that don't know what's going on,

I'm honestly surprised it's taken this long for us to wind up having a
listing for a client.

That being said, we're thinking through solutions and I wanted to get
others opinions in how they've tackled the problem on their end.

We're currently looking to implement a combination of preventions with the
leading idea being:
honeypot on sign up pages + IP intelligence + email address intelligence +
coi

The idea being the honeypot will stop some bots, the IP monitoring will
look for numerous sign ups within a short periond of time (which we
currently do for credit cards) and then also look for email addresses being
signed up acorss clients in a short period of time.

Have folks used this type of combo to stop fraudelent sign ups? And
thoughts? Thanks!

Brett
