Nowadays, many people consider phone systems that are safe for businesses online. However, along with the international growth in online usage and revenue, it is the notorious mass grave of fraudsters who try to find a mistake to take advantage of anyone using (or accepting) credit cards. Virtually all partners understand that in the event of significant discounts, companies set up without fraud prevention checks. We have identified some trends that should be useful to anyone involved in running an online store to protect your online business from frauds.
Identified the Fraud Customer
All samples are issued by all online purchasing managers. In almost every case we encounter, the person trying to place a fraudulent order has stolen a credit card from a store (probably a retail store or restaurant) or purchased a list of credit card numbers from a company that committed identity theft. In cases such as those involving individuals, fraud is subject to payment. The customer was thorough enough to obtain the CVV number from the back. If it turns out that the customer is using a customer card, so be it. It is very likely that he is in possession of such a card if the billing address cannot be confirmed with him.
In our experience, the customers who cheat the most seem to be the stupidest. We receive emails from people who ask us to accept credit cards and send them a list. It is not difficult to understand that these emails are looking for scams. Customers ask for a solution in large numbers and ask us if we accept credit cards. These emails often mention that the sender is buying goods for a good cause, and use a benevolent name.
There are some smarter and some braver customers. We have known customers who use email addresses and phone numbers. We find that the customer only used a credit card after the purchase was shipped. A customer’s billing address did not match the address. It was a phone call, and another billing address was provided by him. But the billing address did not match the address. Due to a defect in our account application, the purchase was delivered. The end result was a selection of $600 worth of soccer jerseys for a thief in Dallas, Texas. Another customer bought wellness bags and asked for them to be sent to Miami, Florida. He was not discouraged when he was contacted and informed that his assessment had to be approved by the bank before he could give his consent. She woke up for a test and gave birth.
General Fraud Indicators
The orders that are the stamp of fraud would be a request for accelerated shipping. Looking at it from a thief’s point of view, one of the best techniques to pack a deal outside the warehouse door without inspections is to request delivery. You worry about shipping. People don’t show any consideration for the cost as they spend on the purchase. Most stores offer discounts. If a customer comes into our store and orders fifty soccer jerseys at your expense, raise a flag at your own discretion.
Evaluating a Customer’s Ip Address
Evaluating a customer’s IP address can help determine where the customer is in business. We have received inquiries from Ghana and Nigeria. Potential thieves are setting up a system that will allow them to obtain a product that is delivered to an address in the United States and then sold in their home country.
