News of the Month...

As online gambling becomes increasingly regulated throughout the world, fraud prevention has become a major concern. And not that it wasn't already. But with more governments and gambling commissions making the jump into regulation, more questions are being asked, and certainly more IT companies are providing services with fraud prevention and detection in mind. One of the more recent fraud prevention initiatives is a collaboration between 192.com and 3rd Man. 192 specializes in database aggregations which eCommerce providers for online casinos can use to run identity checks on real money players. 3rd Man specializes in detecting fraud patterns by means of transaction comparison at various merchants. By combining both identity checks and shared fraud data profiling, the new initiative is a first of its kind. Spokesperson's for both companies expressed an eagerness to begin providing the integrated solution to online casinos and gambling companies in addition to their current clientele of European eCommerce providers. The realistic hope is that fraud managers at online casinos will be able to use the new initiative to both prevent and identify fraudulent activities in an even more efficient manner.
