I am trying to find a reason to be charitable and am wondering if there is any scenario where this is not credit card fraud, like for example if there's some system like a link shortener that would suppress uniques. I've heard cookie stuffing for example can insert a cookie without a unique click.
Account is over 90 days old, CB rates are not unusually high (though retention is fairly anemic compared to overall program stats) the amount of joins is decent enough to draw meaningful conclusions based on stats.
Any ideas?

Every single time I have seen this, which is about 10-15, it has been fraud. The scammers are also good at letting accounts age before they push sales through. I've had 2 year old accounts all of a sudden start doing sales. If you want to email me I will tell you other things to check. I do not want to give them a "how to scam guide" on this board.
