Identity Fraud Detection

Fan Yang

Over the last five years, the number of identity thefts reported to the Federal Trade Commission has been steadily rising. In 2021, there were 22% more cases of identity theft reported than in 2020, racking up $1.2 billion in losses. Identity theft comes in many forms, including government benefits fraud, credit card fraud, loan fraud, bank account fraud, tax-related fraud, phone or utility fraud, etc.

Securing personal information can help prevent identity fraud. But that’s easier said than done. Banks, card issuers, and government need to take steps to combat identity fraud. Considering vast volumes and velocity, it would not be possible without automation, and AI/ML comes as a natural choice.
