Abstract

Methods, systems, apparatuses, and computer program products for discovering fraudulent account usage are disclosed. In an example, a database is queried to identify a list of accounts and transaction categories. A first table is generated based on the transaction categories. A second table is generated by populating the first table based on a response to querying the database for a first set of historical transactions over a first period of time. A third table is generated by populating the first table based on a response to querying the database for a second set of historical transactions over a second period of time. A measure of similarity for each of the accounts is generated based on the second table and the third table. For each account with a corresponding measure of similarity below a threshold, the account is identified as a fraudulent account candidate.
