Preventing fraud – from application and beyond

Solutions for the Telecoms sector

Subscription Fraud and Account Takeover remain the most prevalent causes of fraud within the telecoms industry, accounting for up to 10% of a carrier’s bottom line. Advances in technology and the rapid growth in adoption of mobile telephony mean that the industry is an increasingly attractive target for fraudsters.

Yet the simplicity of fraud tactics employed makes it difficult – but not impossible – to combat.

At Synectics Solutions, we have the experience and breadth of data you need to truly understand your customer and significantly reduce the risk of fraudulent transactions both at the point of application, and in-life as an individual’s risk profile changes.

FRAUD AND RISK

Monitor your customer base to identify suspicious individuals and behaviours, and ultimately protect your business from fraud.

IDENTIFICATION

Understand who you are really doing business with. Flag and investigate those customers who may pose you a risk whilst effortlessly onboarding the low risk majority.

VERIFICATION

We can identify points of compromise pre-application and pre-transaction, so you can be confident that the people you are trading with own the account information that they are using.

COMPLIANCE

Use our data and insights to help you ensure evidence- based compliance, and improve performance against UKRN's key consumer metrics.

VETTING

The use of "insiders" and "intermediaries" to commit fraud is on the increase within Telecoms. Keep your business safe by pre-screening employees, partners and resellers.

DEBT MANAGEMENT

Having early sight of potential bad debt can help you take action to mitigate your losses.
