Publication number: 20240386488Abstract: In a method for changing a user's bank account information in merchant account databases a server receives a login request including a user identification and first user authentication information. The server further receives a request to change bank account information from a first bank account to a second bank account for merchant accounts of the user and network login information for the first bank account. The server accesses an account information database for the first bank account and downloads transaction information for merchant transactions involving the first bank account. The server identifies a set of merchant user accounts involved in the merchant transactions and receives account login information for a data site associated with a selected account. The server accesses the data site and changes a bank account identification stored therein from the first bank account to the second bank account.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 31, 2024Publication date: November 21, 2024Inventors: Jeffrey RULE, Michelle OLENOSKI

Patent number: 12137165Abstract: Systems and methods for executing sequential suboperations over multiple communication networks. In some aspects, the system receives, via a first communication network, from an external system, an operation related to an aggregated virtual container. The system generates sequential suboperations including a first suboperation associated with a provider of the aggregated virtual container and the external system and a second suboperation associated with the user and the provider of the aggregated virtual container. If the first suboperation is executed successfully, the system transmits the second suboperation to a user system associated with the aggregated virtual container. If the second suboperation is executed successfully, the system generates a first message indicating that the operation has been executed and transmits the first message via the first communication network to the external system.Type: GrantFiled: October 4, 2022Date of Patent: November 5, 2024Assignee: Capital One Services, LLCInventors: Lawrence Douglas, Jeffrey Rule, Jackson Macomber

Patent number: 12113818Abstract: A computing system may obtain text corresponding to a conversation between an outside caller and an agent. The computing system may obtain data associated with the conversation that may be used to determine whether the outside caller is attempting malicious activity or not. The obtained text and data may be provided to a machine learning model to generate a probability score indicative of whether the outside caller is attempting to obtain unauthorized access or attempting other malicious activity. Based on determining that the probability score satisfies a threshold, the computing system may modify a permission (e.g., an API permission) of the agent. The computing system may deny the request to perform the action and may cause display of an indication that the request was successful.Type: GrantFiled: July 13, 2022Date of Patent: October 8, 2024Assignee: Capital One Services, LLCInventors: Lawrence Douglas, Jeffrey Rule, Jackson Macomber
