Detailed Overview

Fake Customer Blocker combines multiple lightweight signals to identify likely fake users and malicious checkout attempts while minimizing false positives. It analyzes IP reputation and proxy usage, detects disposable/temporary email addresses, monitors registration and checkout velocity, and optionally fingerprints device/browser attributes to detect automated bots and duplicate accounts.

The plugin is built for both business owners who need an out-of-the-box solution and developers who require extensibility. Default presets help merchants start protecting conversions in minutes, and the advanced rule builder plus developer hooks offer deep customization for complex marketplaces and enterprise workflows.

FAQs

1. Will this block my real customers?

No — the plugin is designed to minimize false positives. Start with the Balanced preset and use Flag or Quarantine modes while you tune rules. Admin review workflows let you whitelist trusted users.

2. Does it use external services?

Optional. Built-in checks run locally, and you can enable third-party IP reputation or email-validation services for higher accuracy. Those services may require separate API keys and accounts.

3. Can I customize detection rules?

Yes — the visual rule builder supports complex AND/OR logic. Developers can also extend behavior with provided actions, filters and REST endpoints.

4. Is it compatible with caching and CDNs?

Yes. Checks are cache-aware and many lookups run asynchronously to avoid blocking page loads. We provide guidelines for integrating with Varnish, Cloudflare and other caches.

5. How do I investigate flagged accounts?

Use the quarantine dashboard to inspect device, IP, email, and activity history. Audit logs show timestamps and the rule(s) that tripped, and you can restore or ban accounts with one click.
