How would I go about doing the same?

As others said: VPN. Ukraine seems to work good currently, since the Credit Card address isn't validated. Cheaper countries like India or Turkey now check if the CC you use is from that country. That is a bit more complicated to pull off, so that wasn't worth it for me.

VPN to the country of your choice, then hit the sign up page for the service your interested in.
