Absolutely agreed! I wish all sponsors would ask for this, although some people are maybe a bit shy if they run some offshore business for "tax optimization", but 4. alone would stop loads of the the fraud.
Noone who is running a real business can't cash a check or doesn't have a real bank account for a wire.
Even worse, it's not the affiliates only, just have a look at all the programs offering epassporte, webmoney, fethard, etc. payouts only and have a 2257 link at the bottom while residing in asia or russia.
