What are Fraud Risk Identifiers?

Fraud Risk Identifiers are additional sources of fraud risk predictive data used to assess the likelihood of fraud. For example, the following address data facts are analyzed:

• Is the address recognized by the US Postal Service as a valid address?
• Is the address a commercial or residential address?
• Is the address in an area known to be prone to fraud activity?

These identifiers add to the predictive power of the Fraud Risk Score, but are not the sole reason for an assessment of elevated fraud risk.
