avoid transit because of default route

Dear list,

I only export three prefixes I own to my peers and upstreams.

In theory, nothing prevents one of my peers to choose my router as default
route (without my consent), and to pass his packets through my network
(only in output, therefore).

How to prevent this abuse? It doesn't depend on the BGP layer, but on the
IP kernel isn't it ?
Is it common to filter incoming IP packets according to their destination?

Cheers, julien
