The 3 Stages of Bank Fraud Investigations How Your Institution Can Stop Fraud At Stage-1
In the era of Covid-19, and the growing utilization of mobile-banking, financial fraud is on the rise. It’s costing financial institutions record losses with little end in sight.
However, new technologies promise to stop financial fraud before costly reimbursements are made, which can potentially save financial institutions millions of dollars in losses.
Stage 1 – Fraud Detection
There are many signs of potential bank fraud. Unfamiliar deposits and withdrawals, unexpected overdrafts and new accounts, new debit or credit cards issued under an existing customer name, etc. Unfortunately, many of these early warning signs go completely undetected, until it’s too late. The crime has been committed, leading the investigation into Stage 2.
Stage 2 – Investigating the Case
Depending on the scale of the fraud, the investigation team may alert the FBI. During their investigation, the team will try to determine the source of the fraud, attempt to retrieve lost funds and hope to prevent future infiltrations from that bad actor.
Stage 3 – Reimbursement of Stolen Funds
If during or after the conclusion of the investigation, the team finds the fraud was not committed by the customer, the bank will issue a reimbursement. Depending on the size of the theft, the bank may be on the hook for millions of dollars. The bank becomes the victim.
