CallFraud

Comprehensive, online fraud check available 24/7

Carry out a CallFraud check on new and existing customers using Callcredit's powerful anti-fraud datasets whenever you have concerns about potential fraudulent activity.

CallFraud consolidates a wide range of data sets to provide complete protection against fraud. Fraud and identity theft is a growing problem in the UK costing the UK economy £1.7 billion annually. Other sources estimate that identity fraud accounts for a criminal cash flow of £10 million per day.

What is CallFraud?

CallFraud is a powerful tool, which can be combined with other fraud solutions to greatly enhance fraud detection. CallFraud combines traditional residency and date of birth checks with GeoFraud, to identify high fraud risks at either point of application or existing customer contact. CallFraud then also performs negative checks to confirm no CIFAS data is present, that the consumer's address is not known to be of higher risk, and that the consumer is not known to be deceased. These checks provide an important package of additional positive and negative checks to aid your fraud prevention strategies.
