So, I use VPN, and order my stuff to arrive where? If someone doesn't ship to Russia, they don't ship to Russia, how can VPN help there?
Freight forwarders are how most of us outside of the US get stuff from companies that only ship to the US - There must be a market for such services that ship to Russia too.
Sure, but you've just made fraud cost them actual money.
As a seller, it is not your responsibility to compensate for the fraud issues impacting your customer's ability to participate in the marketplace without it being worth it.

I don't know exactly what causes Russia to be a fraud hot spot but Australia not to be, but the issue can only really be resolve inside Russia.
