This Month's Fraud Analyst Discoveries

💳  A BorrowerCheck™️ client asked us to review a Driver's License this month, which seemed to have been issued AND expired- on the SAME date! Sometimes it's the little details that can highlight a lot.

🚔  We thwarted attempts by the so-called 'owner' of a business who submitted about 20 applications at the same dealer in the last 2 months. This individual is associated with a dozen SSNs and has a history of criminal charges involving fraud, credit card abuse, tampering with government records, and making false statements to obtain credit.

✂️ Fraud analysts found five applicants who all claimed to be the manager of the same barbershop in Georgia! According to their application history, none of them had any prior experience.

At Point Predictive, we use a unique combination of Artificial and Natural Intelligence [AI+NI] to detect fraud and automate loan decisions. In addition to our AI solutions, our Fraud Analysts conduct investigative reviews to root out fraud patterns and alert our clients.
