New Ex-South Africa Credit Card Restriction?

Was just talking to AA RTW desk re an AONE4 ex-JNB on a different issue. "You do understand, sir, that you must use a credit card with a South Africa billing address to have this itinerary priced in ZAR, right?"

Well, no, I explained to her, that's never been a requirement before and I don't see it in the rules.

"I'm going to update your record to reflect that I have advised you. You see, sir, so many people have been doing this that they're starting to crack down on people buying these tickets in South Africa."

Anyone else hear anything about this?
