Fraud Risk Scoring – Phone Reputation Score

Phone Reputation Scoring in Real Time

Fraud Check Delivers a Risk Assessment or Reputation Score

Fraud Check delivers real-time security intelligence and data on telephone numbers. Covering the US and international markets allows greater certainty and protection from fraudsters. Your lookup is done using live data. As a result, outdated information and stale databases don’t impact the fraud risk scoring.

The score is based on telecom data, traffic patterns, and previously reported fraud. Scores range from 0 to 1000 and include recommended risk levels. Ultimately, this allows you to block, notify, or allow.

Identifies Phone Type
Knowing the type of phone (landline, cell, or VoIP) allows you to reach the recipient through the right channel.

Reduces Spam and Fraud
Because not all carriers are created equally, Fraud Check helps identify carriers. As a result, you can then flag carriers commonly associated with fraud and add additional checkpoints.

Fraud Risk Scoring Improves Your Data Quality

All things considered, registration fraud is spreading. Similarly, people and robots are signing up for fake accounts on web and mobile apps at a record pace. Furthermore, these accounts are often used for social spam—such as driving affiliate traffic, malware proliferation, or promoting other websites. It is important to realize this activity can damage brand reputation and user growth.
