Eliminate Fraud with Phone Verification

Posted on by

Let’s face it: If you re doing business online, your business is open 24 hours a day.  It’s still reachable at 3am when you are not watching it.

Another fact is that there are several fraudsters out there trying to order with stolen card, trying to access unauthorized accounts. And they do that this way or that way.

One another thing is that, while you try to reach real customers, you may find out that a fraudster filled several records in your database.

I can extend the samples a lot, but the main point is, you need to identify “good” and “bad”. Yes, by your business experience you can do till a certain point. But there are so many user profiles out there that you cannot identify only by your experience.

OnVerify.com here helps you and provides an automated way to distinguish “good” and “bad” with automated phone verifications.

For example, you are accepting free sign-ups for lead generation, a classical flow is:

  1. Display the offer
  2. Ask the customer’s details
  3. Record Details
  4. Send a welcome e-mail

OnVerify.com’s phone verification system can be placed in between 2 and 3; ask the customer to verify himself, easily, with an automated phone call.(It’s easier than sending an e-mail). So your new flow will be

  1. Display offer
  2. Ask the customer’s details
  3. Initiate a verification via OnVerify.com
  4. Ask announced pin
  5. RecordDetails
  6. Send a welcome e-mail

Adding an automated phone verification usually takes 2 hours to 2 days. There will be no setup or monthly fee, you will be charged only for the answered calls. See a live demo at http://www.onverify.com/a/demo

Credit Card Fraud Prevention for merhants

Posted on by

As online business, you are open to Credit Card Fraud. To be honest, there is no 100% mechanism to stop fraud. But there are some tips to minimize the fraud:

  1. Some countries have much higher risks than others when doing business overseas. Watch the orders originating from overseas countries
  2. Watch bulk orders. Criminals will commonly order in bulk
  3. Watch orders with different shipping and billing address
  4. Track and watch the customer’s ip.
  5. Check customer’s geolocation of the ip to billing and shipping address
  6. Watch orders done with free e-mails
  7. Compare BIN code of the credit card to billing address
  8. AVS (Address Verification Systems) does help you correlate credit card with billing/shipping address
  9. Call the customer (This is where onverify.com stands, does the automatic calling)
  10. Compare phone number with address. Although mobile numbers are non-geographical numbers, fixed line numbers convert to geographic information
  11. Keep a history of good or bad orders.
  12. Build a fraud score system with all above information and previous orders (good or bad)
