Read More About Neobank Fraud

Neobank Fraud

Neobanks are part of a fast-growing industry whose very online nature attracts fraudsters trying to scam their way into bank accounts.

With the potential to be subjected to phishing attacks and stolen passwords through to bot attacks and deepfake-based synthetic identity fraud, the whole vertical is a target for financial criminals of all experience levels.

You need to know who you’re dealing with, where they’re operating from, and both what and who they’re connected to. Let's now take a closer look at how SEON’s solution can provide a frictionless onboarding experience and help you monitor suspicious transactions and other activities with ease.

Its digital footprinting capabilities means it’s instantly available to tell you what digital and social media presence, if any, your users have. This is a new alternative way of detecting suspicious characteristics about a person – or indeed an altogether fake account – without even having to run KYC checks.

Moreover, SEON’s IP geolocation and device fingerprinting checks are able to determine many suspicious aspects of an account – from users trying to log in from suspicious locations and devices to transactions in a time zone that doesn’t match the person’s ostensible billing address.

On top of all this, SEON also identifies connections between accounts, allowing you to spot the potential for criminal affiliations online. Why do all these accounts share that one password hash? Why do they all use the same device, browser and cookie configurations?

These are all questions that SEON can help you tackle – and doing so will pay dividends to both your fraud prevention and anti-money laundering efforts.

Can SEON detect suspicious transactions for neobanks?

Yes: SEON offers a comprehensive end-to-end fraud prevention monitoring suite that can inform your approaches to identifying illicit payments and other suspicious activities from your neobank users. For example, sudden transactions that are made at over 200% of the user’s average spending habits can be flagged for review, or even automatically blocked by the solution.

Are there fraud attacks that are specific to neobanking?
