You can get lists of known proxies, I'm sure people sell them like they do geoip db's. If you are tracking returns, and this was going on, it wouldn't take long to figure out the IP ranges, hosts, areas, ect that are allowing this to happen and just block the IP's directly.
The main problem with excluding proxies is that many people surfing porn from work use them to hide their asses and get around filters...so banning them may destroy more business than it helps preventing fraud
