Harnessing the Power of Data to Detect and Prevent Credit Card Fraud
Case Study
The Background:
One of the most prevalent — and preventable — types of cybercrime is credit card fraud, which is exacerbated by the growth in online transactions.
Developing techniques that more accurately identify and decline fraudulent purchase attempts helps Amex protect its customers and merchants.
The Challenge:
Millions of buyers and millions of sellers together make billions of transactions that lead to over a trillion combinations and dollars in transactions a year in charge volume.
Hence, Amex must try to provide customers with a safe way to pay, reduce the amount of fraud, and create trust within the customers.
The Solution:
In most financial fraud use cases, machine learning systems are built on historical transactional data.
The systems use deep learning models to scan incoming payments in real-time, identify patterns associated with fraudulent transactions, and then flag anomalies.
