First you say your box is under attack from fraudulent credit cards (so why dont you use the usual method of validating 
each card before the transaction?????) - then you say you have found private ips in your logs, and claim that this 
*must* be related without providing any reason at all (this also makes it clear that you have no real firewall in front 
of your ecommerce setup, a little risky to say the least). Now you say someone has sent an email to a mailing list and 
therefor that means they are guilty of credit card fraud. Are you kidding, the authorities are just going to laugh if 
that is what you tell them. If you are serious about the fraudulent c/c transactions, then I strongly recommend you 
hire someone more competent than yourself to look at your setup and try to figure it out.
