  • Publication number: 20170046708
    Abstract: The present disclosure extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for detecting and responding to potentially fraudulent tender. A customer presents a form of a tender at a Point-of-Sale (POS) terminal in a retail location. The tender is presented as payment for one or more items. Transaction data, including tender data, item data, and geographic data, is sent to a central system for analysis. The central system determines that the presented tender is potentially fraudulent based on: the one or more items, purchase history associated with the presented tender, and the geographic location of the POS terminal. In response, in-store surveillance equipment at the retail location is used to save a recording of the customer. One or more parties designated for asset protection are alerted about the potentially fraudulent tender.
