We have a scammer that is buying our e-Books and then performing chargebacks. Our e-Books don't have DRM, so if they wanted to resell them, they would only need to buy each book once. But instead, they keep buying the same books over and over again and then performing hundreds of chargebacks.

We have created some additional rules in our fraud protection tools to block certain aspects, even though all the info looks legit, and are hopeful this will slow them down.

But my question is: What is the scam? If they aren't getting any product and they only get chargebacks for something they already purchased, then they can't get additional money from the credit card company, so then what's their motivation?

: Can a web page have two keyword meta tags? If I have 2 keyword meta tags on my page how are they read? Both together? Only the 1st? Only the 2nd? Neither?

: Cannot access the subdomain all the time I created a new subdomain: blog.example.com. Sometimes, the blog is accessible without any problems, but other times it's not, just like now at this moment

We figured out that this was an affiliate scam. Affiliates were getting commissions for orders, but the commission was not getting reversed for chargebacks.
