Fraud will probably be quite a problem, but nice concept.

I guess if you had a number of stolen credit cards you could set up a wishlist item, then use them to contribute. I imagine the final Amazon purchase would be on record as coming from WishListGranted and the item is gifted to you so that might be one layer of separation between you getting an item and the use of stolen cards.

Perhaps you could elaborate on what types of fraud you think would happen?

A common use case for stolen cards is to do small transactions and see if they are successful or not to let you know if the card you found/bought actually works or does not. This site would be a great way to do that.

In a sense, I wouldn't mind some fraud problems :)

If that's the case, it probably means that site is popular and gets used beyond being a MVP.
