FICO® Customer Communications Service Scam Signal wins award at Credit & Collections Technology Awards; solution uses telephony signals to spot scams

(International Fraud Awareness Week) – A new solution from global analytics leader FICO and Jersey Telecom (JT) received the Best Anti-Fraud Solution award at the Credit & Collections Technology Awards on November 7 in Manchester. The FICO® Customer Communications Service Scam Signal solution uniquely uses telephony signals to detect potential scams. The solution, which is available in the UK and soon to launch in Spain, also won silver in the Datos Insights awards earlier this year.

Scam Signal is the first real-time application of telephony data being used with customer and payment data to tackle the issue of authorised push payment (APP) fraud, where consumers are tricked into authorising payments from their accounts to scammers. It is the only solution that provides an integrated approach, seamlessly connecting telephony data with fraud decision making and prevention. This enables direct, near real-time customer intervention to determine if a payment should proceed.

“With APP fraud causing £460 million in reported losses in the UK in 2023 and new regulations mandating reimbursements, the need for banks to adopt preventative solutions is more urgent than ever,” ’said Clare Messenger, Head of Mobile Intelligence Solutions at JT. “This technology is a breakthrough in fraud prevention, using telephony signals to detect subtle signs of fraud at its source. This means banks and other organisations can take proactive measures to prevent financial loss. ’We are delighted that the solution has been recognised and hope it contributes to reducing fraud statistics as banks across the UK use it to protect their customers.”

Scam Signal uses advanced analysis of real-time network data together with customer and payment data, during live transactions, to effectively detect and mitigate social engineering attempts aimed at deceiving and defrauding account holders. The solution can incorporate this data across 2G, 3G, 4G, 5G Volte and Wi-Fi calling for multiple mobile network operators and is currently being extended to support UK landlines.

Results from banks using the solution include:

  • Reduced the number of people scammed by 41%.
  • Decreased fraud losses from scams by 44%.
  • Lowered false positives (payments flagged as fraud that are in fact genuine) by 55%.

“Stopping any kind of scam or fraud requires a real-time response,” said Matt Cox, vice president and general manager of FICO in EMEA. “Working with JT, we have integrated Scam Signal with our omni-channel communications solution so that banks can easily interact directly with their customers to provide warnings and guidance that can prevent them from sending a payment to a fraudster, reducing the number of people who fall victim to scams.”
