Expect random online purchases to be declined or stalled due to IP reputation based fraud detection.

I live in the UK and this happens to me a lot. The combination of whitelisting third party javascript and using a VPN exiting through Finland seems like a brilliant recipe to trip up fraud detection.

Based in the UK, but this hasn't happened to me once and I usually set my VPN to Sweden or Netherlands.
