Episode 21: Refund Fraud - Connecting Consumers to Organized Crime

Brett Johnson and Karisse Hendrick are both anti-cybercrime experts. But, with very different experiences. Karisse has worked with hundreds of the World's largest e-commerce and mobile companies to help them prevent payment fraud and other threats to their bottom line and customers. Brett, started his journey as an online fraudster, creating the first darknet forum for buying &amp; selling credit cards and was responsible for creating the criminal enterprise that commits identity theft, credit card fraud and many other online scams. But, after landing on the Secret Service's Most Wanted List and serving his time, he's been reformed and now dedicated his career to helping consumers and online companies prevent fraud from people he used to be.

Very informative show but you’ll want to skip past the first 15 minutes of most episodes which consists of the lady rambling off topic. The flirting and constant giggling about minutia is rather annoying but if you can endure that, they eventually will get to substantive material and talk about a wide range of interesting fraud topics.

Good show for those who are patient.

Thanks for putting this out there. Great content. Love the back and forth. Keep up the great work.

What a hoot!  Awesome content!

Merchant episode 2 "Carding"

Over the last year or so, Karisse has noticed a large divide between two groups that *should* be unified in their fight against online fraud and abuse: merchants and solution providers. This divide has led to frustrations, assumptions and burned bridges. Because Karisse has a 10,000 foot view of the industry and works with both merchants and solution providers in her consultancy, she's in a unique position to share the perspective of each side to one another. She also posted a survey on LinkedIn asking merchants &amp; vendors to share their perspectives, stories, and advice to the other side, and received way more responses than she was expecting! She'll share some of the best responses to those questions, in addition to her own observations and insights. Solution providers will learn more about merchants: how they think, what they care about and how they want to be sold to. And Merchants will learn how to better communicate with vendors and to get the most out of vendor interactions, and learning more about the various solutions in the space. -And both will learn more from each side's perspectives. This episode is being released prior to one of the main industry events in online fraud and payments: CNP Expo, but the advice and insight that is packed into this hour will help year round. Subscribe to Online FraudCast to be alerted when the next episode is out!

Episode 3: Merchant ATO (Account TakeOver)

On this episode, Brett &amp; Karisse discuss triangulation. A type of fraud that especially impacts event or attraction ticketing companies, online travel agencies, retailers and anyone with giftcards. First, in the What The Fraud segment, Karisse shares a topic a few retailers have shared with her recently: a steep increase in "lost package" claims. Brett discusses what is most likely the root cause of these claims and Karisse follows up with actions merchants can take to reduce the impact of this to your company.Triangulation occurs when fraudsters purchase items or services from your company (on a stolen payment method) to resell to a consumer for less than retail. The impact to merchants can result in customer service issues when the customer is impacted negatively (the tickets or giftcards are canceled or the customer can't return the item because there is no purchase history between the consumer and the company). Brett shares why this type of fraud is attractive to fraudsters and several examples of their methods depending on the products that are purchased (and an example of how he unknowingly fell for a triangulation scheme as a consumer). Karisse follows up with the impact to CNP companies and various strategies and process changes merchants experiencing this type of fraud can deploy to reduce the impact to their bottom line and to create policies when consumers contact customer service regarding the purchase of stolen products.Let us know what you love about this episode by rating &amp; reviewing this podcast on your podcast app and contact us at info@onlinefraudcast.com with questions, suggestions or feedback.
