•Why credit card fraud alerts are rising, and how worried you should be about them
81% Informative
New shopping patterns, spending on big-ticket items, and lack of use of monitoring services, purchase limits, biometric security, advanced password protection, and credit freezes, can all result in a higher rate of fraud alerts.
About 60% of credit card holders in 2023 experienced some sort of attempted fraud, Experian says.
Mastercard says it's observed on average a 20% increase in its ability to detect fraud thanks to AI .
Experian: Data breaches may turn up the dial on fraud alerts, but changes in shopping patterns are guaranteed to set off red flags.
MasterCard said multiple transactions quickly in a row will always alert their systems.
Freezing your credit file, using a password manager and using two -factor authentication for your financial accounts can also be beneficial.
