I agree. What do you suggest? Just shut it down?

I guess I could move to SantaFe and do something with turquoise.

People have already given you options and you repeatedly say “nah, that’s inconvenient”. The inconvenience is the point. You are inconveniencing customers who want to get a thing from you and have a reason to endure it to achieve that goal but you are also inconveniencing the scammers who have no goal at the end so…

Fuck it. Have fun in Santa Fe. Save me a seat and some tequila.

I feel like the card processors should bear this responsibility. I dont have the technical skill to apply most of the suggestions, and I fear damaging my income by doing it wrong.

They should, yes, but they don't. In fact, they'll ding you for having too many failed transactions and claim that it's your responsibility to do something about it.
