Card fraud is a type of financial crime that involves the unauthorized use of a payment card, such as a credit or debit card, to make purchases or withdraw cash. It is a major problem for banks and card issuers, as it can lead to significant losses. Card fraud can take many forms, including skimming, counterfeiting, and account takeover. Skimming involves the use of a device to copy the information stored on a card's magnetic strip, while counterfeiting involves the production of fake cards with stolen information. Account takeover involves the use of stolen credentials to gain access to an account and make unauthorized transactions. To combat card fraud, banks and card issuers have implemented a variety of measures, such as chip-and-pin technology, fraud detection systems, and customer authentication. These measures have helped to reduce the amount of card fraud, but it remains a major issue. Companies in the card fraud market include FICO, Experian, and Verifi. Show Less Read more
