Hi,
I have been investigating ways of preventing automated account
creation on the e-commerce system I am currently working on. Obviously I
have seen the graphical solutions to this problem, a small image containing
several letters and numbers which must be typed in by the user to confirm
account creation. However, this (it seems to me) is a bit overkill for what
is a pretty small client, I'm not entirely sure it's a good use of time to
create this script solely for them, does anyone know of anything
pre-packaged? Furthermore is it really worth doing this, what risks do
automated account creation present to an e-commerce site?
