New
functions within FlexVerify include the ability to stop fraud
before it can start. A series of baseline parameters are established
to warn tellers when account activity has exceeded typical
transaction behavior, based on account age, transaction volume
or dollar amount trends. Prior to completing a transaction,
FlexVerify prompts tellers of suspicious account activity,
including the ability to instantly review previous transactions
over the last five business days. Fraudulent transit items,
stolen on-us checks, and check kiting represent the core focus
of FlexVerify fraud tracking initiatives.
Past
transaction activity is condensed using statistical analysis,
allowing FlexVerify to provide results based on months –
or years - of transaction data. Long-term analysis is better
equipped to anticipate gradual changes in customer patterns,
yet deliver information to the teller as efficiently as
possible.
FlexVerify
also supports exceptions to standard tracking rules. Accounts
that are known to have unusual activity patterns can be
identified to eliminate unnecessary warnings, ensuring end
user confidence in FlexVerify.
