Abstract: In a computer-implemented method of using customer data to determine that geolocation-based fraud alerts are false positives, it may be determined that an electronic fraud alert is a geolocation-based alert generated based upon an unexpected or abnormal transaction location. In response, customer data may be obtained from two or more sources via radio frequency links. It may then be determined that the customer data from the sources indicates that a customer is traveling. In response, it may be determined that a customer location indicated by the customer data corresponds to the transaction location. In response to determining that the customer location corresponds to the transaction location, the electronic fraud alert may be marked as a false positive, and the electronic fraud alert may be prevented from being transmitted to a mobile device of the customer, in order to reduce an amount of false positives that are transmitted to customers.

Abstract: A distributed system for processing messages includes one or more gateways, sequencers, and compute nodes. The gateway sends a message to the sequencer and the compute node for processing. The sequencer associates the message with an identifier indicating a relative sequence of the message among a plurality of messages. The compute node processes the message to generate a preliminary result, and determines, based on the identifier, whether the compute node processed the message in sequence or out of sequence relative to another message of a plurality of messages. If the compute node determines that the message was received out of sequence, the compute node may process a sequence of messages including the message and at least one preceding message in an appropriate sequence.
