Understanding the 'Casual' Fraudster

Thank you

Global economic growth is declining (3.2% last year) while global inflation is rising (8.8% in 2022), creating an environment for more fraud. These conditions have influenced the creation of a new type of fraudster, someone who is often difficult to identify and often people who are not professional criminals, but rather individuals who commit fraud opportunistically. Casual fraudsters are difficult to identify and prevent; they often use low-tech techniques or switch between a genuine customer and a casual fraudster without masking their identities. In this webinar, attendees will learn who the casual fraudster is, including their motivations, methods, and techniques. Attendees will also learn how businesses can identify and prevent casual fraud and implement a strategy to protect themselves from this growing threat.

Learning Objectives:
1. Identify the different types of causal fraud and the common tactics used by casual fraudsters.
2. Understand the tools and strategies used to prevent amateur fraud.
3. Implement effective fraud prevention strategies in your business to minimize the risk of financial loss.


This webinar is for current MAG merchant members.
