Fraud Library

eCommerce Fraud Consulting Services

The Fraud Practice offers the Fraud Library for free to merchants and risk professionals around the world. We have attempted to keep information in the library non-vendor specific while providing sources for each of the techniques in the library. We have chosen to only elaborate on techniques and general educational material and not to create or show actual fraud strategies.

We can offer this library, because we charge for advertising on the pages within the fraud library. These advertisements are not to be considered endorsements of vendors by The Fraud Practice. If you have ideas on additional content you would like to see added to the library please drop us an email at library@fraudpractice.com.

Not all of the articles in the library have been added yet, keep checking back as we fully upload the fraud library.
