Protect against account takeover fraud
As the digital age increases and online services become more accessible to everyone, it has opened more opportunities and more accounts for criminals to attack and takeover. Account Takeover attacks increased by 34% in the last couple of years.
Account Takeover attacks can target bank accounts, loyalty accounts, retail accounts and social media – anywhere that a consumer uses a username and password to access the account.

How can we help?
Are you keeping your customers safe online?
It is important to remember that Account Takeover fraud is not a single event, it goes through different stages:
- Stage 1. Bulk Login – Fraudsters use stolen credentials to test their accuracy by credential stuffing.
- Stage 2. Account access – Once the data can be confirmed as valid, fraudsters will manually access accounts.
- Stage 3. Account detail update – The point the fraudster takes control they will change key details, email, telephone to lock the customer out of the account.
- Stage 4. Extracting value – Fraudsters are now able to extract the value from the account, making purchases, transferring funds and using the data to open new accounts.
Experian’s ATO service offers you a complete defence package against attacks.
