FraudNet

Fraud-Net is a resource for both banking security professionals and the law enforcement community nationwide. WVBA subscribes to this service and provides it free as a benefit of membership to our bank members, regulators and law enforcement. Fraud-Net provides a secure platform for members of these groups to share information to aid in the prevention of fraud by allowing users to post and read alerts regarding criminal activities affecting financial institutions. The system boasts many features such as email alerts, alert and user search, capability for attachments (photos, images, documents), unlimited users and online help. Although users receive e-mail alerts when new information is posted to their region, none of the sensitive information from the postings is ever sent through e-mail; the alerts simply notify the user of a new alert posting.

Reviewing alerts and posting information on Fraud-Net can help you and your institution stay up-to-date on what is happening in your area, state and nationally. If you have an alert, whether it’s a robbery, a counterfeit check, identity theft or any type of financial crime, post your own or simply submit it to tips@fraud-net.com with as much information as you wish to submit. Fraud-Net will take it from there.
