Financial transaction fraud is massive
The majority of online fraud occurs during a transaction - i.e. when a user attempts to buy something or move money. The problem is massive, with 2020 financial crime losses in the US estimated at $700+ billion. In isolation, looking at a transaction and determining if it should be allowed, challenged or denied is difficult. Also, financial services companies must report suspicious activity in order to comply with banking regulations.
Payment fraud
This is fraud resulting from stolen credit cards and compromised online financial accounts.
Money Laundering
This is where criminals move money between accounts to "clean" it. BSA/AML compliance requires you to monitor and report on suspicious activity.
Card testing
Criminals purchase list of stolen credit cards on the dark web and attempt to verify that they are valid, normally using software bots.
