WEB is a place where fraud is very possible. So, you have to protect yourself and your customers as well. With ViArt CMS you can watch IPs your customer use when surfing Internet and block those you think might be trickery.
Should you need to prevent a customer from entering your online portal or at least want to keep an eye on him/her, you may add his/her IP to the black list. You can do this via the 'Edit User Info' page (Administration > Customers > Customer Accounts > View/Edit info). Note that customers whose IPs are black-listed are shown in red.
If you add a customer's IP to the Black IP list, all actions for this IP will be blocked. However, you mightn't want to be so flat and would like just to keep vigilant watch on the customer and his/her orders.
Please do to Administration > System > Black Ips. Your screen should look like the following:
Note: The IP will be different.
By default when adding an IP to the black list, the system blocks all activities from this IP. If you want to change this, click the 'Edit' link.
Here you can set the system's behavior (set red warnings for administrators or block all activities) as well as add some comments.
- If you tell the system to block all activities from a specific IP, the customer using it won't be able even to login in the store.
- If you choose red warning for administrators, the system will show all order placed from the IP in red; the customer won't even notice anything.
