The problem with ISP's is that we aren't actually "shipping" a product, so billing and shipping addresses don't really matter. However, the person would have to know the mailing address that matches the address on the card AND the CVV code or it would decline the card. We also have our online signups use the pending feature so we can look at the account before they are actually added. It's worked well for us, so far.
