Features & Benefits
Equifax Scam Detect delivers dynamic, cross-industry scam intelligence to help your business prevent losses, satisfy regulatory demands and safeguard customer trust without compromising privacy.
-
Disrupt instantly with real-time API screening
Screen transactions, transfers, and digital interactions as they happen. Whether a customer is adding a new payee or a platform is hosting a suspicious conversation, receive an immediate risk assessment. Coupled with real-time risk scores and rule-trigger breakdowns, you can introduce digital friction or pause suspicious payments before funds leave your institution.
-
Automate decisions using a dynamic Scam Score
Utilise a real-time Scam Likelihood Score driven by AI and linguistic markers. Set custom risk thresholds to automatically flag, challenge, or approve interactions with operational clarity.
-
Incorporate cross-industry consortium intelligence
Instantly contribute and access de-identified scam data across banking, telecommunications, and digital platform sectors. If an account, phone number or identifier is flagged as a scam in one sector, it is recognised across the entire network.
-
Identify potential social engineering with behavioural AI
Analyse messy, unstructured behavioural data footprints - such as chat logs, SMS text, or document screenshots - using AI models. Detect conversational drift and subtle semantic patterns of social engineering, including fake urgency, platform-evasion tactics, or coaching against safeguards during the grooming phase of a scam.
-
Maintain privacy-preserving infrastructure
Protect customer data while satisfying strict Privacy Act obligations. The platform operates securely on de-identified data without requiring raw Personally Identifiable Information (PII) to be shared or stored internally.
-
Flexibly screen data with batch processing support
For organisations requiring non-API integration or operational reviews, SFTP-based bulk processing enables batch data screening and historical back-testing on your terms.
