They need to show that these people who are claiming that they purchased the cards for other reasons, have a dish in their house and no legal smart cards for use.

From what I read (and note that this was several months ago so things could easily have changed), DirecTV was matching up the smart card sales orders with DirecTV's customer list therefore insuring they had a dish AND were buying the smartcards.
I have a friend who buys these and has them mailed to his mother's house because she doesn't have a dish.

Yes, mistakes happen as they do in anything, but again, from what I can tell, they ARE giving those who claim to have bought the smartcards for legitmate purchases to prove it.
