🚨 Distributors Are Being Used as Pipelines for Fraud Fraudsters are getting smarter—and distributors are a prime target. By spreading fraudulent uploads across multiple distribution platforms, bad actors make it harder to detect and stop their schemes. They’re not relying on just one distributor; they’re using many to ensure there’s no single point of failure. The scale of the problem is staggering. ➡️ Over the past few months we’ve seen 50+ distributors on the platforms we monitor where more than 50% of their streams are fraudulent. ➡️ In some cases, it’s as high as 89%. ➡️ These fraudsters upload tracks, generate streams through bots, stolen accounts, and other methods, siphoning revenue away from artists, managers, and legitimate stakeholders. And this isn’t limited to small-scale players. Our work spans trillions of streams across many streaming services. The issue impacts the entire supply pipeline—artists, managers, distributors, and labels alike. 🎧 Why should distributors care? Fraud doesn’t just steal revenue. It can damage a distributor’s reputation, lead to clawbacks from DSPs, and even expose companies to legal and regulatory risks. Fraudulent streams undermine the trust distributors have worked hard to build with partners and artists alike. 💡 What’s the solution? Distributors need tools that provide visibility across platforms to detect fraud effectively and proactively. With the right solutions, fraud detection becomes a strength—not a liability. At Beatdapp, we’re here to help. Together, we can close these fraud pipelines and protect the industry’s future 🎵 Catch the full presentation here for more information: https://lnkd.in/ggXSRJ-f

Money Mules. Late in the stage of fraud (the cash out phase) money mules are a crucial part of having a successful fraud campaign (and for defenders). I admit, I write my own posts, but had a bit of fun with Gemini image creator on this one. But, the creation of mule accounts does not happy so late in the fraud matrix. The creation of mules has a long "warming" process. Once created, fraudsters need to legitimize their mule accounts so they are less likely to be flagged by transactional anti-fraud capabilities. Given the early stage of creation logically we can understand that for defenders identifying mule account creation should happen much earlier in the fraud matrix. Using Behavioural Biometrics as well as Device Fingerprinting with Group-IB's powerful ML techniques for fraud hunting we are detecting mule account creation at the creation phase. Not only that, we are tracking the fraudsters once they attempt across their next attempts, fully disrupting the cash out process. Check out this latest article by Julien Laurent to learn a bit more into what we are doing. The results have been phenomenal and have far exceeded results which customers have experienced using competitor digital channel anti-fraud solutions. PS - I tried to make the mule look as angry as possible, but Gemini was happy it was Friday. https://lnkd.in/dJxSb5bh

Fingerprint visitor IDs are highly accurate identifiers that uniquely recognize your web or mobile users. Imagine a visitor browsing your site anonymously, then signing up or making a purchase later. Now, you can link their previous anonymous events to their new customer profile. Or let's say that the same visitor showed some red flags before signing up, like multiple failed login attempts or suspicious browsing patterns. Once you know their account information, you can tag those past events, potentially uncovering fraudulent behavior that might have slipped through the cracks. Learn more about how enhancements to Fingerprint's Events API can help build a more complete, dynamic picture of each visitor and their activity over time.

To mark the start of International Fraud Awareness Week, there are some eye-opening findings from @NatWest’s latest study: 42% of British adults have been targeted by scams in the past year. The fastest-rising threats? Fake parcel delivery texts, social media marketplace scams, and AI-powered voice cloning fraud. These scams are getting more sophisticated by the day. Fake parcel texts lure recipients into clicking on malicious links that can steal personal information or install malware, while AI voice cloning fraud makes scams feel all too real, mimicking voices to deceive victims with shocking accuracy. With scams evolving so quickly, it’s crucial that financial institutions stay ahead. Banks have real-time transaction insights and the ability to spot unusual patterns before a scam turns into a loss. Lynx Tech Mule Account Detection empowers payment providers with a 360-degree view of incoming and outgoing money mule transactions. The solution is powered by Daily Adaptive Models, supervised Machine Learning models that are retrained daily to identify fraudulent funds and mule accounts in real-time with the highest accuracy and lowest false positives. https://lnkd.in/eyNJqPqB #FinancialCrimeFighter
