Ask them to check out with the same credit card at the end of their meal.
Blacklist any card used for a reservation consistently not matched. Cancel all their RSVPs.
We don't care about the odd reservation where someone books and someone else pays - that's rare and individual people don't book that many reservations. Worst case they call support and you set a note to not apply the rule to them.
This means scalpers now need to rotate cards. That sucks and is going to hit other limitations.

- vorpalhex 3y agoThat's why canceling the RSVPs is important. You just screwed over the scammer and their current "orders". Even if the scammer rotates a new virtual number each time, the high number of cancelations on them is enough to trigger inspection and a personal ban (since they still need their name/address on all the virtual numbers).
