Scanning The World for Fraudulent Data

Merchant Alarm is powered by CardCops, which helps global Internet merchants reduce losses by identifying transactions involving stolen credit cards. In addition, CardCops protects consumers from identity theft by providing them with the means of determining whether their credit card, social security number, or other personal information has been compromised, even before it is used to commit a crime.

CardCops collects compromised data from cyberspace and makes it available in "real time" to consumers, merchants and banks. CardCops began scouring cyberspace for compromised personal and financial information in 2000, and has supplied information to Credit Card Associations, the FBI, the Secret Service, various Attorneys General offices, and other law enforcement agencies. What is unique about much of the data found by CardCops is that it has not yet been used maliciously, and therefore enables the CardCops customer to take pro-active steps to prevent identity theft and fraud from occurring.

By partnering with Merchant Alarm, your company’s fraud prevention needs will be handled by a dedicated team of professionals who specialize in the monitoring and prevention of credit/debit card fraud. The Merchant Alarm team will work with you every step of the way in deploying and helping you get the most from your new fraud prevention system.
