it probably has something to do with the large proportion of fraudsters using linked in and every personals site in the world for 419 and other confidence schemes, don't you think? of course, this only forces the fraudsters to use proxies, aol and satellite providers which are more difficult to geolocate.

Well, half of west african connectivity IS satellite so you're going to see a lot of Gilat, etc satellite carriers' IP space as the source for 419 activity Especially when it comes to a paid service like a lot of linkedin is, if firewalling off a particular section of IP space means far less chargebacks, well, it may not look good but it sure has a great impact on your bottom line. --srs
