Discuss, speculate, I'll grab the popcorn...

[4 Points] None:

Most vendors use stolen credit cards, which will fuck you over royally (there was a relatively recent large bust where over a hundred people were arrested for travelling like that). The specific vedor livinglarge has been around the longest I believe and they claim they don't use stolen credit cards and I've never seen a single complaint of someone who got caught (although they may be in jail which would explain that). I personally wouldn't do it either way because if I'm travelling with friends/family there's no way in hell I'm taking even a slight risk. That would be quite the vacation-ruiner.

In the past it has been done with hijacked travel agent accounts.
