Where is e-commerce fraud taking place?

Published: March 23, 2017 by Guest Contributor

The adoption of EMV terminals has pressured attackers to migrate their fraud attempts to the card-not-present channel. This is a major driver to the increase in e-commerce fraud attacks – more than 30% over last year.

Here’s how this fraud victimization has increased across the country:

  • 16% in North Central states.
  • 25% in Northeastern states.
  • 32% in Southern states.
  • 25% in Western states.

Attackers are extremely creative, motivated, and often connected. Protect all points of connection with your customers to prevent e-commerce fraud with a comprehensive, multilayered approach.
