Basic or Customized Training Sessions
In the basic version, we offer non-individualized standard training.
Our individualized training is even better. We take your cases and examples, and extract screenshots from your systems in order to review and help optimize your processes.
The duration of our training sessions ranges from two to four hours, plus breaks. We offer both remote and on-site training options.
The standard training sessions, without customization, are priced at 750,- Euro (net).
We offer a range of services including fraud checks, workshops, and sparring partners:
In our fraud checks, we meticulously examine and benchmark both your external and internal processes and systems. Our analysis encompasses existing measures and procedures, and we develop an optimization plan that factors in effort and potential gains. This service can also be seamlessly integrated with analytics and comprehensive system testing.
Transparency is a cornerstone of effective fraud prevention. While it’s impossible to completely eliminate all risks, we believe in acknowledging and addressing these risks with suitable measures. Sometimes, gaining an external perspective is key to achieving this goal.
Upon request, we are available to facilitate and moderate workshops with diverse objectives centered around fraud prevention. These workshops could range from fostering clarity within your organization, scrutinizing specific processes, to reevaluating past instances of fraud.
Expertise in prevention often tends to be concentrated within a few individuals. We position ourselves as your sparring partner, providing you with the much-needed professional and transparent dialogue that involves practical action rather than mere discussion.
Following an initial consultation, we tailor these services to your specific needs, offering them either through a flexible call-off arrangement or at a fixed price.
Analytics in consulting
We start with an assessment of the present state. In our technical consultations, we meticulously examine your processes and existing systems. Collaborating closely with our team of analysts, we extend the following services:
– False positive review: Exposing hidden instances of fraud that have gone unnoticed
– Crafting business cases for overhauling internal processes and procedures, and their implementation
– Conducting value-added analyses to leverage supplementary data sources
Our Fraud Health Check seamlessly integrates professional consultancy and cutting-edge analytics into a single comprehensive package. We establish benchmarks for your systems and methodologies while charting a course for further advancement. All of this is offered at an attractive fixed price.
Fraud Circles – because fraud prevention is not a competition!
Our Fraud Circles provide the perfect opportunity for cross-company knowledge exchange and sharing. Here, we discuss current fraud trends, patterns and how to potentially combat them. We currently offer them for the following industries:
– Finance (focus on consumer lending business),
– Payment (eCommerce, PSPs and Issuer)
– Digital Goods & Game Providers (international, in English)
If we get many questions or notifications about a specific fraud trend, we also conduct Fraud Circles on current trends. Examples are refund fraud, B2B fraud or triangulation fraud.
To ensure a safe and relevant exchange, participation is only available via invite, and selling, pitching or solution providers are excluded from joining. If you are interested in participating in one of our fraud circles, please contact us via our contact form.
