Originally, we were allowed to make an Asian account and was able to add US money from a Visa (because they're international), but we couldn't add too much at a time due to security reasons. We had to add in increments of like $5 or something (i forget, it's been a while) until we had enough, then just purchase it. BUT NOW, they caught on to us, and they changed it...so we can no longer add US money to foreign accounts. SONY has/is releasing Playstation Store Cards that you can buy, and add funds to your account that way. So if PlayAsia sells them, get one and you'll be set.

I'm sure a majority of them are people outside of Japan
You can't sign up for a Japanese account with US / Euorpean information and you have to use one of the prefecutres listed, and I'm not they don't monitor IPs
