Patent number: 10671980Abstract: A computer-implemented method for detecting potentially compromised payment cards is provided. The method uses a processor in communication with a memory. The method includes storing a plurality of tokens. Each token includes merchant identification data corresponding to a first merchant. The method also includes transmitting the plurality of tokens to the first merchant and receiving an authorization request message from a merchant. The authorization request message includes a token and a merchant identifier corresponding to the merchant. The method further includes determining that the received token is one of the plurality of tokens associated with the first merchant, determining that the merchant identifier does not correspond to the first merchant, transmitting a message including instructions to decline the transaction, and attaching a potentially compromised flag to the first merchant. The potentially compromised flag indicates a heightened probability of fraudulent activity.Type: GrantFiled: October 20, 2014Date of Patent: June 2, 2020Assignee: MASTERCARD INTERNATIONAL INCORPORATEDInventor: Jason Jay Lacoss-Arnold

Patent number: 10664845Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for use in implanting account controls based on conditional states of users associated with the accounts. One exemplary method general includes receiving, by a computing device, status data for a user where the status data is indicative of a current conditional state of the user. The method also includes accessing, by the computing device, at least one account control rule for an account associated with the user, where the at least one account control rule associated with a conditional state, and activating, by the computing device, the at least one account control rule when the current conditional state of the use is the same as the conditional state associated with the at least one account control rule.Type: GrantFiled: December 11, 2015Date of Patent: May 26, 2020Assignee: MASTERCARD INTERNATIONAL INCORPORATEDInventors: Andrew Lambert, Jason Jay Lacoss-Arnold

Publication number: 20200065913Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for use in locating one or more merchant terminals based on transaction data associated with the terminals. One exemplary method generally includes accessing, by a computing device, transaction data for a transaction to a payment account between a merchant and a consumer at a merchant terminal where the transaction data includes a terminal ID for the merchant terminal, a merchant ID of the merchant, an acquirer ID for an acquirer associated with the merchant, and a temporal indicator. In addition, the method includes receiving, by the computing device, location data associated with the transaction, identifying, by the computing device, a location associated with the location data as a location of the merchant terminal, and assigning, by the computing device, a score to the identified location indicative of a confidence that the identified location is the actual location of the merchant terminal.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 29, 2019Publication date: February 27, 2020Inventors: Jason Jay Lacoss-Arnold, Vincent A.

Patent number: 10553200Abstract: A text-to-speech (TTS) computing includes a processor and a memory. The TTS computing device is configured to generate a machine pronunciation of a text data according to at least one phonetic rule, and provide the machine pronunciation to a user interface of the TTS computing device such that the machine pronunciation is audibly communicated to a user of the TTS computing device. The TTS computing device is also configured to receive a pronunciation correction of the machine pronunciation from the user via the user interface, and store the pronunciation correction in a TTS data source. The TTS computing device is further configured to assign the pronunciation correction provided by the user to a user profile that corresponds to the text data.Type: GrantFiled: April 27, 2018Date of Patent: February 4, 2020Assignee: Mastercard International IncorporatedInventor: Jason Jay Lacoss-Arnold
