So we're having issues with fraudulent orders as of late and I wanted to know that if I used javascript to submit an IP address for the user to a site and display the address/location/area received on our back-end when viewing orders, would that cause any security issues? Also if you have any recommendations on a site that you feel is secure enough to submit this information then it would be appreciated.
