"Fake"? There's always a real IP on the other end or you can't communicate with them. There *has* to be a way to get the real IP address. How are you doing it now? What makes you think it's fake? One thing nobody mentioned was a CAPTCHA. There's a new, simple, one in PEAR: http://pear.php.net/package/Text_CAPTCHA http://www.captcha.net/ I know they're annoying, but it could cut things down if they're automating this. You could also resort to the "create a login" method. Or even a "valid e-mail address" option if you really want to stop them. We implemented a nice one-step credit card, address, and login method on www.pnicorp.com.
