• Fraud News: Tools Fraudsters Are Using To Bypass Fraud Mitigation Systems

  Fraudology is presented by Persona.In this episode of the Fraudology Podcast, Karisse Hendrick dives into the world of tools and technologies that fraudsters are repurposing for nefarious purposes. She shares insights from her recent interview with a reporter about AI tools being used both for and against fraud. She explains why seemingly helpful solutions like AI chatbots that waste scammers' time are not scalable enough to make a real impact. The episode then explores two powerful tools fraudsters are leveraging: TextVerified and hyper-disposable email domains.TextVerified allows scammers to obtain phone numbers that appear legitimate and pass typical fraud checks, enabling them to bypass identity verification systems used by banks and fintechs. Hendrick breaks down how these numbers show up as clean postpaid accounts with tenure, making them nearly indistinguishable from real customer phone numbers. She advises companies to work closely with their phone verification vendors to detect TextVerified numbers.The episode then shifts to hyper-disposable email domains, a sophisticated evolution of disposable email addresses that only exist for a few days before disappearing. This makes them extremely difficult to blacklist and block. Karisse explains how these domains are being mass-produced to generate millions of fraudulent emails daily, posing a major threat to e-commerce companies and financial institutions. She recommends that businesses consult their email verification providers about identifying these elusive domains. Hendrick wraps up by emphasizing the importance of staying informed about the latest fraud tactics and tools.Tune in for the latest fraud news!Related articles:https://frankonfraud.com/textverified-helps-fraudsters-bypass-banks-phone-verifications/https://finance.yahoo.com/news/atdata-flags-alarming-fraud-trend-133500766.htmlFraudology is hosted by Karisse Hendrick, a fraud fighter with decades of experience advising hundreds of the biggest ecommerce companies in the world on fraud, chargebacks, and other forms of abuse impacting a company's bottom line.
