Proactive protection against financial fraud

Mule Account Detection

The use of mule accounts is a common tactic in fraud and money laundering schemes. These accounts, used to move illicit funds, may belong to deceived users, accomplices, or even be created with false identities. Detecting them early is crucial to avoid financial losses, regulatory penalties, and reputational damage.

Our technology combines artificial intelligence, machine learning, and behavioral analysis to identify suspicious accounts from the very first moment and stop their activity before it causes harm.

Smart Security

Anticipate fraud and protect your financial ecosystem

Our solution employs advanced techniques to accurately identify mule accounts:

  • Pre-fraud signal analysis

Detects signs of fraud from the account’s creation by:

  • Evaluating irregular patterns in the registration process and source of funds, identifying atypical or inconsistent behaviors.
  • Analyzing networks of devices linked to multiple accounts.
  • Identifying connections with suspicious activities through intelligent honeypots.
  • Real-time account monitoring and classification

We assess transactions and behaviors to classify accounts based on their risk level.

  • We identify suspicious operations and anomalous patterns before fraud occurs.
  • We distinguish between victim accounts and accomplice accounts, enabling proactive intervention.
  • Collaborative intelligence and consortia

Enables secure collaboration among financial institutions to share key information.

  • Uses advanced privacy techniques for data exchange without compromising confidentiality.
  • Facilitates the detection of organized fraud networks and prevents large-scale attacks.
