  • Publication number: 20150213451
    Abstract: A mobile computing device is adapted to transmit to a scoring server URLs of websites browsed using the device. The scoring server can compare these URLs against a merchant URL obtained within a preselected time period from transaction data resulting from a transaction involving a payment product of the device user. A score can be calculated based on the similarity between each URL obtained from the device and the URL from the transaction data. The score represents the likelihood that a website browsed using the device and, as a result, the transaction, is fraudulent. The browsed URLs can also be scored against a database of known fraudulent websites. A notification concerning the legitimacy of the transaction based on the score can be generated and sent to the mobile device in real-time. On receiving the notification, the device can be used to either accept or decline the transaction in real-time.
