Fraud Alerting System: Act Fast, Stay Ahead
Real-time fraud detection is only half the battle —
immediate action is what truly protects revenue. We built a lightweight but powerful
fraud alerting pipeline that sends instant Slack notifications when suspicious activity is flagged, enabling teams to respond within minutes.
What We Delivered
- Payment Gateway Integrations: Connected to fraud signals from Forter, Stripe Radar, and other providers
- Dynamic Risk Filters: Configurable thresholds to surface only truly high-risk transactions
- Slack Notifications: Alerts included transaction context, user data, payment method, and risk scores
- Department-Based Routing: Alerts were routed to finance, compliance, or support based on type of risk
The Outcome
Our system enabled fraud teams to
intervene in real time, cutting response delays from hours to minutes. This led to improved
approval rates, fewer
false positives, and a noticeable drop in
chargeback incidents — all without slowing down legitimate users.
