Fraud
Detection
Filters
The Fraud
Detection
Suite
includes
multiple
filters and
tools that
work
together to
evaluate
transactions
for
indicators
of fraud.
Their
combined
logic
provides a
powerful and
highly
effective
defense
against
fraudulent
transactions.
Amount
Filter
Allows
merchants
to set
lower and
upper
transaction
amount
thresholds,
restricting
high-risk
transactions
often used
to test
the
validity
of credit
card
numbers.
Velocity
Filter
Limits the
total
number of
transactions
received
per hour,
preventing
high-volume
attacks
common
with
fraudulent
transactions.
Shipping-Billing
Mismatch
Filter
Identifies
high-risk
transactions
with
different
shipping
and
billing
addresses,
potentially
indicating
purchases
made using
a stolen
credit
card.
Transaction
IP
Velocity
Filter
Identifies
excessive
transactions
received
from the
same IP
address
per hour,
isolating
suspicious
activity
from a
single
source.
Suspicious
Transaction
Filter
Detects
highly
suspicious
transactions
using
proprietary
identification
criteria
and
transaction
behavior
analysis.
Authorized
AIM IP

merchants
submitting
Advanced
Integration
Method
(AIM)
transactions
to list
server IP
addresses
that are
authorized
