Payments fraud has become a bona fide international issue for financial institutions of all sizes. As international payments volumes are growing, there are also increased fraud threats originating from outside the U.S. borders directed at our payment systems. International fraud incidents are occurring in all our payment systems, including check, ACH, cards and wire transfers. Attendees will hear specific examples of fraud from recent schemes as well as what is being done to try to prevent more of the fraud directed at our payments systems from sources around the world.

  • Specific examples of recent payment fraud schemes
  • Current initiatives to curb fraud originating from outside the United States through prevention and investigative measures
  • Types of monitoring that may help detect and prevent similar fraud in financial institutions
