However, most credit card fraud is behavioural and occurs when details of legitimate cards have been obtained fraudulently and sales are made on a 'Cardholder Not Present' basis.

Unsupervised Profiling Methods for Fraud Detection Richard Bolton David Hand 2007-03-17T15:12:25-00:00 no-tag http://www.citeulike.org/user/issbg/article/788096 <i>Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery, Vol. 1, No. 3.

Then the indicators are used to create a set of monitors, which profile legitimate customer behavior and indicate anomalies....
