The postcode lottery…

17 12 2012

Around Christmas, we see a huge increase in transactions and we know that fraudsters wait for these peak trading times to make their move, hiding within the data.  Sage Pay’s Product Marketing Manager Moe Curmoula has been working with leading Fraud Prevention service ReD on bespoke fraud packages and gives us an insight below into their Fraud Hotspot Map.

Unlike other crimes happening in your area at this time of year, online fraud often goes by unnoticed.

As an online business, being able to see where fraud is coming from can help you manage your Fraudtransactions paying particular attention to orders being delivered to these areas.

Our friends at ReD worldwide have done just that and put together this handy map of London detailing the areas in which they are seeing a lot of fraudulent activity.   This year, East London is seeing a high amount, along with Harrow in North West London.

So, that next high value order you’re about to ship to HA9 – do you want to double check it?
