Online Fraud Alert System
FinCrime.com is sponsored by a network of state bankers
associations, and is open to their member financial institutions and law
enforcement. Participating financial institutions in FinCrime share
information in an online, searchable database of fraudulent activity.
The result-shared aggregate data identifies and links criminals to their
acts. FinCrime’s focus is to improve financial institutions’ ability to
detect and prevent fraud losses and to assist law enforcement in the
prosecution of criminals.

FinCrime.com provides a communication vehicle for financial
institutions and law enforcement, functioning as a clearinghouse of
information. Participants submit fraud data into a central depository
which immediately notifies the participating users via email. This
early awareness allows you to take action to prevent fraud losses in
your bank.
The shared
database provides opportunities to build larger “multi-bank” cases out
of smaller individual losses, helping financial institutions and law
enforcement focus on repeat offenders and organized crime. Through this
effort, we hope to gain overall loss reduction for GBA members as
professional criminals will find financial institution fraud more
difficult, more risky and less profitable to pursue!
