Abstract
A method for evaluating fraud suspects is provided that includes receiving suspect data identifying a plurality of suspects of a fraud. Monetary transaction information associated with the fraud is received for the suspects. For each suspect, a value for each of a plurality of criteria associated with the fraud is determined based on the monetary transaction information. Criteria weights are applied to the values for each suspect to generate a score for the suspect indicative of a likelihood of fraud.
