I need to send a curl request with the user's ip address not the server one. I tried this with no luck:
curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_INTERFACE, $ip );
Any ideas?

See Question&Answers more detail:osOk, so there's no way to safely spoof the ip address of a curl request, but I found a non-safe way, it depends on the server script receiving the request, but it worked for me to trick the API I was making the request to:
curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array("REMOTE_ADDR: $ip", "HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR: $ip"));
This won't always work, but in this case it worked for me.
Thanks everyone for the help!
