Published on: 20th June, 2023

Fraudology is presented by Sardine.

Doriel Abrahams, the head of Risk for Forter US returns to answer listener questions after his last episode (April 27, 2023).

Some of the questions covered topics like:

  • The benefits & Risks of placing fraud prevention efforts pre- (bank) authorization vs. post- (bank) authorization. Is one better than the other? If so, why?
  • The expensive risks of some 3DSecure strategies (such as: approving fraudulent orders + brand dilution, and/or still being placed on chargeback monitoring programs despite the fraud chargeback liability shift); but the benefits of strategic/dynamic 3DS in both the US and other markets such as Europe, India, and Australia
  • Doriel was asked to share one of his fascinating case studies, and he walks us through the signals of a potential fraud scheme with unknowns intentions and what was discovered.
  • He was also asked a specific question that put him on the spot to answer if Forter has changed over the last few years, and if/how they are different from others in the space.

Beyond answering thoughtful questions from Fraudology listeners, listen in as two friends who are passionate about fighting fraud & supporting the fraud-fighting community, share their observations & appreciation of learning from each other.

About the Podcast

Fraudology Podcast with Karisse Hendrick
Join Fraud Fighter Karisse Hendrick twice a week for deep dive interviews and weekly fraud news.
If you work in online fraud prevention, chances are you've caught the "bug". The bug that makes you passionate about identifying & preventing cybercriminals from getting away with stealing from your company, or your client's companies. Most people who have made cyber-fraud their career have the perfect balance of analytical and social skills, a strong sense of justice and the curiosity that will drive you to go down every path of information until you "crack the case".

Just like sociology is the study of social behavior, and psychology is the study of human behavior, Fraudology is the science and study of fraud.

On the Fraudology podcast, long-time online fraud expert, Karisse Hendrick will dive into all areas of Fraudology from the perspective of a fraud-fighter. With guests ranging from former cybercriminals to fraud-fighters at Fortune 500 companies to law enforcement and others, you will no doubt be entertained, while learning a lot about fraud & other forms of abuse prevention!
