My Company Is Being Defrauded. Need Script Info

    Hello.

    I work in the audio conferencing sector. And recently, we have had what looks like some kind of automated script running and defrauding us.

    They seem to be trying to figure out different code combinations through repetition.

    Any way of finding out if such a script or bot exists that targets the audio conferencing sector?

    Any scripts out there that deal with international dialing etc?

    Thanks for the help.

    Probably custom I suggest you add some sort of captcha? or something to block out bots.

    Unfortunately it's relatively easy to write such scripts you either need a verification system (capcha etc) to ensure a real human being is behind logins or you need to block IPs after a certain number of failed attemps. Unfortunately this is something that many of us have to put up with.

    Nope, some captcha's are damn near impossible to crack. You just have to make a really good custom one.

    If you added captcha I'm pretty sure whoevery is cheating your system will stop
