Abstract
An identity chaining fraud detection method that allows each current transaction to be linked to other transactions through commonly shared identities. Over a period of time the links create a chain of associated transactions which can be analyzed to determine if identity variances occur, which indicates that fraud is detected. Additionally, if a specific identity is detected as being fraudulent, that identity can be tagged as fraudulent and can be referenced by a plurality of other merchant transaction chains to determine fraud.
