Transcript
- 0:02You're listening to Leaders and Lending from Upstart, a podcast dedicated to helping consumer
- 0:07lenders grow their programs and improve their product offerings. Each week, here decision
- 0:13makers in the finance industry offer insights into the future of the lending industry,
- 0:18best practices around digital transformation, and more. Let's get into the show.
- 0:23Welcome to Leaders and Lending. I'm your host, Jeff Keltner. This week,
- 0:26I'm joined by Raksh mirage Car from Capital One and also from the CBA
- 0:31Fraud Committee. So we're going to talk about I'm not no bade and switching.
- 0:34We're talking about fraud and talking about fraud because I want to start.
- 0:38You know, you help lead the CBS Committee on Fraud. What's the topics
- 0:42that are top of mind for the committee this year? Imagine it's it's a
- 0:44pretty interesting time in the fraud space because there's so much turbulence in the market,
- 0:48overall interest times, fils a little thank you fund inviting thank you for
- 0:52joining us. So if I think a lot of the most prominent falcakes that
- 0:57could we have been discussing in the Fraud Committee. We have seen a very
- 1:00big resurgence of our So when we went into the pandemic. The banking industry
- 1:06saw substantial death infraduct to me, really, and that was because fraudusters were
- 1:11attracted by all the government funds that were available. Their whole focus was on
- 1:17PPPE, stimulus checks free and stimulus checks and anything, and then that money
- 1:23right up. And we always knew that they're going to come back at every
- 1:26financial the stations, and they did, and it was very The pace at
- 1:32which they came back was insignificant. The other thing that happened during that transition
- 1:38is as an industry, we went and adopted a lot of digital ways of
- 1:44contracting, so consumers were transacting more and more, not in person but digital,
- 1:51and that's always an area where frousters like because they're not going to be
- 1:55required to be in person. So those two things happened that they wanted to
- 2:00back and find a new avenue, and we had opened up and created a
- 2:04lot of features that are digitally available, and so it created a perfect environment
- 2:08for them to come. So we've seen a lot of fraud and lots of
- 2:13different ways. Just a heard thing that had happened along these waves. Imagine
- 2:20that everybody started to work from Homeziba started doing digital activity. Consumer data was
- 2:30more large scale, compromised across lots of different institutions. So now frosters have
- 2:36this amazing set of cleaned ristine data that they carried against the financial stations.
- 2:43So we saw fraud at scale. We saw a lot of fought activity.
- 2:49They saw a lot of week en identities come through the rules. As an
- 2:53industry, not a lot of banks have very sophisticated defenses, so they were
- 3:00able to recognize it prevented. But it's a nuisance factor constantly getting targeted and
- 3:07attacked on lots of different ways, and I know some of the banks had
- 3:10to rearly up their game move from badge defenses to real time defenses and all
- 3:15those ignorant happen. We saw also activity that we considered as traditional fraud.
- 3:23Checks fraud were like the old school the old schools where me saw the check
- 3:29fraud because a lot of stolen mail and for us to picking up the check
- 3:35from the mail and then making a connossy and then trying to call that at
- 3:38scale. And then we saw obviously some interesting fraud in the digital space.
- 3:45We opened up digital, consumer started adopting digital and yeah, so that's what
- 3:51the fraud isn't going to go because it's real time, it's instant, and
- 3:55we did see that. And then the last thing I would say, which
- 4:00I think you have hold a lot in the industry is emergence or scams.
- 4:05So as as the fraud community realized that banks have built really sophisticated signals and
- 4:14defenses, so instead of coming against and trying to find gaps, they still
- 4:19do that in the bank's architecture, they started going and compromising the customers.
- 4:26So a lot of impersonation, yeah, the weaker, the weaker link in
- 4:30the chain, so to speak, and the social engineering. We saw a
- 4:34lot of that has come up and they preclanding to be either the banks,
- 4:40of government agencies or whatnot. And so scam is through the roof as as
- 4:45an industry. Are these like real shifts from what you were seeing pre pandemic
- 4:47when you said, it's kind of fascinating me that the fraud kind of dial
- 4:50there was easier money to cheat for and so you targets of opportunity, right,
- 4:55and then it comes back. But when it came back, are these
- 4:57like different trends and you were seeing before it looks similar to what was happening
- 5:00in twenty nineteen twenty eighteen. In terms of the kinds of fraud, they
- 5:03are most prevalent. I think the difference that we found was it's most automated
- 5:11ZACT scale. The piece of the fraud activity is tremendous. So what they're
- 5:18trying to do is open act scale thousands and vidions of accounts and financial institutions,
- 5:27and then as they open it, they wanted to try and make fud.
- 5:30Yeah, they're trying to nink accounts, they're trying to move money.
- 5:32So the base at which this is moving has really on a One of the
- 5:38trends we noticed in our systems. I'm curious if you've seen this more broadly,
- 5:41is a slow kind of I'll call it almost probing, and then there's
- 5:46like, okay, we're trying little things, and then when we can figure
- 5:48out the playbook, like if I do this and then this and then this
- 5:51and then this and then this and this and this very specific to our institution,
- 5:55then all of a sudden, band there's like one hundred thousand people.
- 5:58It's like we found a little hole and we're a jam as much fraud through
- 6:00that hole as we can until that I think the expectations of it will be
- 6:03closed relatively rapidly. But it's like, oh, we find a little hole
- 6:08we got to then then all of a sudden, just like how are there
- 6:10a hundred thousand applications an hour from like des Moine? Like that doesn't it
- 6:14doesn't make any sense. And we see a lot of things to National CAFIC
- 6:16come so IP addresses that are not US based IPS or the glue outside and
- 6:25when the banks amize that and they are putting controls, they picked the switch
- 6:28to IP addresses studifferent locations. So yeah, the scale of sophistication has gone
- 6:32up. Yeah. The thing that surprised me most when we saw shifting of
- 6:35IP addresses was shifting to even residential network blocks where either were talking about you
- 6:41know, Comcast households and whatever in midwestern city and you went, oh my
- 6:45god, like that's not even like a big server IPEd block or something.
- 6:47It's like, it's very very hard to distinguish those kind of IP addresses from
- 6:53normal ones. I agree, And then I think the interesting thing that was
- 6:57different from bad one was scans as a very different thing. We haven't seen
- 7:01the scale all the scams. What kind of scams are you seeing like,
- 7:05what's the typical tack look like in that space? Good question. So the
- 7:11new ones that we have started seeing is because online marketplaces I've explored, they
- 7:16tried to be pretend to be sellers. So more than one puppy scans or
- 7:21concert ticket scans. Did your tailor swift tickets over in the swifty shiites again,
- 7:27so you think that you're actually paying were to somebody legitimate that you will
- 7:31get this really nice cute puppy with all the pictures and everything is very clear,
- 7:36and you send three thousand dollars to somebody and Okay, it's no show.
- 7:42Yeah, so that has definitely gone up. The concert tickets is the
- 7:46same thing. So there is that level of scams that's happening. And then
- 7:51the other one that we have seen is typically fraudsters take advantage of the fear
- 8:00if consumers have so not of scam that we see is taking advantage of the
- 8:07fear. So we see things such as government scams, so they pretend to
- 8:13be from IRS or someplace. If conversation goes as, hey, you haven't
- 8:18paid access and we're sending FPI, it's going to be at your door in
- 8:22two hours, but you have a were like, you can actually send money
- 8:26right now, I can take care and prevent from happening. And it's really
- 8:31trying to pay the dynamics of whatever is the social situation in any residence that,
- 8:37oh my god, my spouse forgot to find the axes. I don't
- 8:39want the cops to come over and let me go ahead and make this payment,
- 8:45and they take advantage of that. We had a really good conversation yesterday
- 8:50around they're targeting vulnerable customers, particularly in the adult population, and there are
- 8:58lots of different variations of that that happens as well. Grandparent scamps is a
- 9:03classic one. So they pretend to be your grandkids calling in saying that they're
- 9:09in trouble and couldn't send some money to get him out of the tuble.
- 9:13Yeah, yeah, um. And we have seen versions of I was actually
- 9:18visiting this country and they have arrested me for something, and here's a parent
- 9:22and taking oh my god, my parents something silly and there's a parents.
- 9:28Yeah, it was just something about that, and they have with send money
- 9:33and the money's gone. That's interesting, you know, it's this fascinating question
- 9:37to me. When the scams shift to the consumer, is the target,
- 9:41because there's kind of question of like how responsible is the bank ultimately like attack
- 9:46credentials or these are often like real customers doing real activities and you're saying,
- 9:50well, you want me to not do what you say with your money,
- 9:54and yeah, you don't. You want to be made whole when you're cheating
- 9:56a scam like this, and you know, there's I think consumers if we
- 10:00had a guest on recently who was talking about how they educated their consumers about
- 10:03some fraud and scam attacks because we were walking into the bridge, this is
- 10:07what you told me about the scammers on the fund right now trying to give
- 10:09my money in the bank. Was very proud they've done that. But do
- 10:11you see a role for government or other institutions to help on the consumer education
- 10:16side. It doesn't feel like it's entirely the responsibility of the banks to educate
- 10:20consumers end up help prevent on that attack factor because it's not in some real
- 10:24way attacking the bank. It's a very different kind of thing, and it's
- 10:28such a great question. We should all work as a community to help out
- 10:33within us. The banks definitely need to play a role, and I'll talk
- 10:37about that developments can't very huge role here, so they have clustered, they
- 10:41have fun they can reach moscare consumers in affective area and it's not about one
- 10:48bank doing it, it's about the entire community getting ready for that. We
- 10:52have seen some really effective campaigns, particularly in the European countries. The good
- 10:56news is we have seen a lot more awareness and interest on moment. Agency
- 11:03particularly CFPP has shown keen interest in how they can leaning and how and they
- 11:09have budget as well, so we hope that they actually go in the direction
- 11:11of usually effectively effectively if I look on them. Education banks can play a
- 11:18lot of all two because consumers trust their banks. So we have been doing
- 11:24a bunch of campaigning and consumer education both in person in branches and for Capital
- 11:31and its cafes like also emails and reaching consumers where they are and telling them
- 11:37about common schemes and what to watch out for. And we see the huge
- 11:41impact of those campaigns. The other thing that I feel is important for banks
- 11:46to do is just like you're trying to spot fraud even if your consumer is
- 11:52making a transaction and you can recognize that in the moment, can you tell
- 11:56the consumers that watch out for these camps and the information right there and that
- 12:03has been extremely effective. Interesting, he wants a tuning the transaction and then
- 12:09they pause and then you pick on it and then you read about, oh
- 12:13my god, that's exactly what's happening to me. Maybe I should call my
- 12:16grandson before I send the money to get him out of prison and see if
- 12:18maybe no, Mom, I'm home, no problems exactly, that's that's so
- 12:24what a helpful figure it back way. And then of course law enforcement can
- 12:30play usual as well. Um, some of these fraud and scam activity is
- 12:37happening internationally. Yeah, and while it's coming from international and they're partnering with
- 12:45the law enforcement in those respective comparty setting planning to break that cost for that
- 12:50world. But interesting, have you seen anybody I imagine the answer this is
- 12:54no, But it comes up like I know, and in many companies you
- 12:56get the IT security department sending seemingly like sending the fake scam, and then
- 13:03when you click how it, they go just so you know, yeah,
- 13:05like you failed the test and then we got at I've always enjoyed because there's
- 13:09a little button in our system where I could see, like I think this
- 13:11one spam and that they send you the target test and you get it.
- 13:13They're like you will, Okay, I call it. You can't fool me
- 13:16with this one, guys. But I don't know if it's gone to that
- 13:18kind of shaking attacks on their consumer. It maybe too much for the consumer.
- 13:22But that maybe I don't know, that maybe going a little too beyond.
- 13:26But um, yes'm I also get design from d r T security.
- 13:33Yeah, but I think it is more about the education and how you can
- 13:37engage with the consumer months. Um, So me do a bunch of campaigns
- 13:41in our cafes, um and then we also plot every National Council of Aging
- 13:46for creating some virtue and workshops. But chicken in the oulderly populations and they
- 13:54understand how they can be impouting them to use tissue technologies. The other thing
- 14:01that we have observed we keep looking at what kind of frauds are coming up,
- 14:07But this tech support scam is a big thing. What is that?
- 14:09So consumers when they're on their computers, they suddenly get or they can get
- 14:16a phone call or an email, but they say they give message saying hey
- 14:20we detected virus on a computer. Some things around happening. This is Amazon
- 14:24all officially what the tech company is callers, and then the consumer calls.
- 14:30Of course they're talking to the camera, and then the camera says pretends to
- 14:35be doing a service for them and say that I need to get into you
- 14:39ntin it? Oh god. So they give live access remote access of their
- 14:45computer, so a gains. All the frausters are coming in and they're putting
- 14:48all these kind of fake analytics on their computer saying, hey, we detected
- 14:54thousands of virus, and then they show a ticker as if it's cleaning up
- 14:56those virus. At this point, the emails a completely beaming that oh my
- 15:01god, that was in a bad shave tank. God, this listener is
- 15:03helping me. And then now they have anymore access and they get into a
- 15:09mansion organization. Stop thinking confection, Oh now it's I mean, I just
- 15:16spent a lot of time with my kids. If I'm like when you get
- 15:18an email, like if I get a call from American Express, when I
- 15:22get an email from MX or Capital wants, hey, you've got to confront
- 15:24of your card. What do you do? You think I do this?
- 15:24You call the number in the back of the car. You don't, yo,
- 15:28who respond to the email. You don't call the number of the email.
- 15:30You pick up your card and go call on this number. So just
- 15:33trying to teach the basics. I loved your point about the real time intervention
- 15:39for scams when you can like help someone in the momentum who's maybe about to
- 15:43complete the transaction to a scammer, and you say, hey, have you
- 15:46thought about this or have you is this what's happening? Um? The thing
- 15:50that occurs to me is that kind of real time identifying of that and reacting
- 15:54to it requires quite a bit of both data and the intelligence in terms of
- 15:58real time systems, an analysis to see it in real time, and then
- 16:00the data to actually be able to analyze that and look at it. There's
- 16:03a lot of bit investment in that, and I'm curious how you think about
- 16:07the investments that are being made and the technology shifting and where the priorities are,
- 16:11because it's like that's a very sophisticated thing to be able to do.
- 16:14But if you said, hey, we do a batch process every night,
- 16:15so tomorrow morning, I'm going to tell fifty people that I felt victim to
- 16:19a scam, But it doesn't help me in the moment, how or how
- 16:22do you see people investing. What are the recommendations you have for how you
- 16:25invest the technology to allow you to move to kind of like that real time
- 16:27nature, because that's not that's pretty sophisticated. Batch is completely old school avality.
- 16:33It shouldn't think about that. When the world has more prio time,
- 16:37payments have more PRIOD time, you have been closed and each media, and
- 16:41it's important to even internalize what careod time really means because for some people earlier
- 16:47time could be that pretty second and for some people to be affuming itself and
- 16:52in the world of prid time, you and seconds matter. Yeah. Oh,
- 16:57I was talking to a coodique from one of the banks and they were
- 17:02having some fraud issue and I was asking them, but don't you have defenses
- 17:06that are in your time? And her response was as reach you. But
- 17:10by the time this thing happens and we get it into our defenses, there's
- 17:14a sifteen minute gap and then that's a real time in It is a too
- 17:18long a time for frances to take advantaitore. Yeah, I think the way
- 17:22we want to think about this is just as the technology and data has exploded,
- 17:29you can take advantage of that because you get access to thousands of features
- 17:36and variables on any given transaction that consumers are trying to do. And if
- 17:41you're creating your systems that can listen and consume those signals in real time,
- 17:48use them, consume them, create analytics, create models, and then credit
- 17:52that is this really something that your consumers are trying to do or is it
- 17:56somebody else? The power of that real time detection can be tremend us.
- 18:00A lot of technology changes are happening. We can now consume large sets of
- 18:06data and the big seconds micro seconds. The computing power has increased, so
- 18:12we can crunch the data into your time like I hear it wasn't possible a
- 18:17few years ago, and the morning techniques having drammatically gbms and others, it
- 18:23can be very surgical. I always get into this conversation. Also, we
- 18:29have fraud colleagues from the banks that there is tremendous pressure on cost efficiencies and
- 18:34things doing bad. But if you think about what you're doing with fraud risk
- 18:40controls, aid's the right thing to do. You're preventing acting the consumers is
- 18:45a bottom line impact. You're preventing bank against our losses, But the real
- 18:48impact is what you can enable on the other side with their business. Meaning,
- 18:53so if your fraud controls are tremendous, you can enable a lot more
- 18:57things for consumers to do. You can now allow and open up your time
- 19:03activity. It's why a clouds actions can do everything sitting in the living room
- 19:11a small device in their hat. The only reason we don't allow them to
- 19:15do as much is because we fear that we won't have fraud. The other
- 19:21thing I'd love to get your take on is I think when you move to
- 19:25the kind of model based world versus kind of an old school rules based approach,
- 19:30you end up with this kind of layering of defenses, which is like,
- 19:32I don't have to be a one hundred percent sure and the real times
- 19:33I wanted to be the guy got a bunch of signals, and each signals
- 19:37like pushes me a little bit. This looks more like fraud, a little
- 19:38bit more like fraud. And I don't have to say you can't complete the
- 19:41transaction, mister Cosmo. I'd like you to talk to an agent first,
- 19:45which I may do a little bit, or I need you to do a
- 19:47knowledge based authentication, or I need to get a text message, like there's
- 19:51all sorts of layering of what is the kind of friction I might put in
- 19:53the process. I don't have to be like one percent sure this is fraud,
- 19:56I'm stopping now, I'm this looks like a higher risk. What what
- 20:00level of friction or additional process can I layer in? And there might be
- 20:03multiple of those layers, So talking about how you design that, because I
- 20:07think that's so important to say, how do I go from yes, no,
- 20:11like this is or isn't fraud, I'm going to stop it or allow
- 20:12it to Like, how do I introduce a little friction to try and reduce
- 20:15the likelihood that the frauds are can complete a transaction as my risk perception increases.
- 20:22So there are some transactions or signals that people think are Bay BAYPO signals
- 20:26if you can take a decision, yeah, just and clearly of the m
- 20:30customer and customer. Yeah, it's somewhere in the mind that when all this
- 20:34complexity comes in and for us, the way we want to think about this
- 20:40is we are in this together without consumers. So when you are in that
- 20:45kind of uncertain phase, how do you reach out and engage with the consumers
- 20:49to confirm Because there's one person who can always tell you if they are making
- 20:53the confection or not. It's consumers um. But then you have to create
- 20:59systems that you dejected to time. How can you reach the consumer serio time
- 21:03in the channels that they prefer, so that it's not just limited to one
- 21:07And then when they're responding, how do you consume that response and then let
- 21:11them continue with the transactions that I kind of do. So that system that
- 21:15requires such an often investment and thinking and design and cladique of messages for the
- 21:22consumers, all of that you have to think one. Yeah, I also
- 21:26love your point about thinking about the other sides. I feel like this when
- 21:30we approach this, it's always this kind of battle between how much can you
- 21:33make things instant and immediate? And of course you can do one hundred percent,
- 21:37it's really easy. You just have a lot of fraud and you can
- 21:40have you know, zero risk of fraud and everything be super painful. In
- 21:45the battle is like how far can I push the limit on instant and keep
- 21:48the frauds low at the same time. And I do think in the world
- 21:52of digital you're in a world where like the instant actually is a pretty tremendous
- 21:55differentiator or at least requirement to be competitive in certain environments. So allowing the
- 22:00lack of sophistication on your froadside to prevent that is like that's becoming a large
- 22:04or larger liability. I think for banks not to be competitive on the consumer
- 22:07side, I totally agree on that one, and I think it's a share
- 22:11of response. It's not just banks job to do it. I think it's
- 22:17consumer's job to prevent and protect them as well, for sure, And it
- 22:21is a government's job to actually helpless designer solution or an environment that's going DC
- 22:26banks and consumers to welcome this thing together. So collectively, I think you
- 22:30can do it. The international countries have made tremendous focus on those events.
- 22:36I go to India vacations and I see that in India's completely digital now and
- 22:42they have all created really sophisticated ways of banks and consumerusly acting and interact.
- 22:48Interesting. I do want to slide back to your comment on the shift to
- 22:52digital, because with a lot of what we talk about is digital influenced.
- 22:56But I'm curious what are the is more and more transaction are going digital,
- 23:00what are the trends and fraud are the investments you see people making that are
- 23:03related to the kind of like I think so many of particularly smaller community banks,
- 23:07maybe not Capital one, but are you know, have a little more
- 23:11just like in the lending space, we bring you in and check your ID
- 23:12and like feel pretty good when Jeff comes in with Jeff ID and jeff social
- 23:17security number. And there so many of the processes that are kind of the
- 23:19fraud mechicines are oriented around in person experiences and as you move digital, you
- 23:25got to find a new way to handle that. And I'm curious what you're
- 23:27seeing as the trends in that kind of shifting the fraud detection as we move
- 23:32and the prevention as we move pure digital, and so many of our transactions
- 23:34that used to be face to face mediated and it had very different mechanisms of
- 23:38protection that aren't available. I agree with you, but I would also say
- 23:42that digital it provides its own unique way of kind of slumming the identity of
- 23:48an individual. Your device has so many signals. If you're able to bind
- 23:53deer device to your consumers very very cry, then that is actually a tremendous
- 24:02way of detecting who is performing the transaction, not frosts are always trying to
- 24:07emulate devices and see if they are care or not, but there is I
- 24:11actually think that in some regards, the transactions that happen digitally can be safe
- 24:21if a bank is able to consume all the information from those adigional transactions.
- 24:26And bigger banks have put a tremendous amount of investment to presume those real time.
- 24:33But even for smaller community banks, there are lots of players that are
- 24:37out there in a fit that can actually make it easy for them so they
- 24:41don't have to do it on their own. But there are so many cares,
- 24:45Like even in this conference, you're seeing that there are so many players
- 24:48out there reading solutions then the banks can plug into. Yeah, maybe the
- 24:53advice I would give to the smaller banks and listeners like one of the one
- 24:59of the flaws I is trying to when you digitize, I think of digitizing
- 25:02the current approaches and to your point, I think it's like you lose a
- 25:06few signals I get, but trying to replace those by uploading a driver's license
- 25:10and having a video call at the same time saying Hey, I'm trying to
- 25:14do the same thing in the digitally, It's like well, no, there
- 25:15are now unique signals that were not available to you before, and you should
- 25:18be you should be taking advantage of those and rebuilding your approach based on that.
- 25:22Otherwise you can, like, I don't think they're trying to make it
- 25:26feel like you're in the branch on your photo idea is gonna it's gonna be
- 25:29the way to do it and not us. These technologies up getting on and
- 25:33more sophisticated. You should an indignation on the apples me. It's so many
- 25:37thanks, so much more fluent. Yeah, and as this technology jstaing Bulo
- 25:44is, you can wind did entitys and indivisio very clearly and enable that friction
- 25:52less in real time transaction capability. So last question for you, what's like
- 25:57for people out there listening go, hey, I see these problems to I
- 26:00said, what's your advice on how they prepare for the future investments that they
- 26:03should be focused on making to be in position to you know, actually defend
- 26:07most effectively against these kinds of things moving forward. Yeah, So I would
- 26:12say that it's a never ending makes it fun, makes it fun, but
- 26:21there is there's so much of advantage that you get when you get it right
- 26:26but don't rest on your moils. So you know at sart is always going
- 26:30to change. Now we have seen things such as chat, GPT and all
- 26:33these artificial intelligence tooths I'm going to come, so we will see a very
- 26:40different level of challenge. The moist recognition is going to be difficult. The
- 26:45almost late in old school, you would get a spoofed email. It will
- 26:51have typo errors and you would know that if least nabled person reads the email
- 26:56out that I don't think this is a professional email. But big things like
- 27:00chat, GPT, that thing is going to feel more professional. Field war
- 27:03yea. The populated setting it so trends will keep changing and you almost have
- 27:10to be on front of that trand change and disappeared where it is going and
- 27:14start building your solutions right away. It's a race that's going to happen between
- 27:18the banks as well as between the front community on how do you left place
- 27:22the technology to be ahead of either. So there is no point in relaxing
- 27:26and saying, oh I did all this investment, I can relax north like
- 27:30them, you would constantly be on your toes, so I think for but
- 27:36take advantage of it. So there's a tremendous amount of capability that's coming to
- 27:40the banks as well. The second thing I would say is engage with your
- 27:47consumers. It's important to educate your consumers. It is important to take them
- 27:52into confidence. The more your consumers are digitally savvy and know what to watch
- 27:56out for, the better you would be. So it's an alienating important to
- 28:00do that. And as a consumer, I would say, just we have
- 28:04attension. It's your money. You need to take a look at it.
- 28:10I always tell about thanks and family that look at your banking accounts, how
- 28:15much habit to look at them almost every other week, even if you're not
- 28:18using them. You don't know who else is your So just holding umber statements
- 28:23and see how how your transactions are because it's irresponsibility. If you find something
- 28:29bad are unexpected, you're the one who need to contact the backs and tell
- 28:33them, yeah, I've I've actually pushed myself and my family working more like
- 28:37real time alerts, like you know I find looking through my likes a credit
- 28:41card. It's a simple example. Looking through the statement once a month takes
- 28:44a lot of time. Getting real time alert saying hey you just bought something
- 28:47away. I know, no big deal. And real time much says you
- 28:49just bought something I did? Yeah? Uh quit Wait, so I'm accusially
- 28:55called my wife on I don't recognize this company for this charge this I'm not,
- 28:59I'm not. It's not a problem. It's okay to spend the money,
- 29:00Like, I just want to make sure that was you and not somebody
- 29:03else. But that real time nature, for me is makes it more digestible,
- 29:06right, more not so much as saying, hey, what all did
- 29:08we spend last month? Did they go to the gas station on the thirty
- 29:11first? Yeah, so you've been trying to do that as a consumer cognizant
- 29:15is important. And how about the community among banks? It feels like this
- 29:21is a bit of a collective problem and a collective sharing of information is Is
- 29:25there a good collaboration among peers to help like identify what's coming and see how
- 29:29we can all respond effectively. Yeah, is one. We have the banks
- 29:33collaborator pretty heavy as we are finding the same game against the bad people.
- 29:38So we had all in it together, so we shared. Our best practice
- 29:44is connect to you, maybe go off there the fun stars hun good coming
- 29:48to you out here. And CBA is a very lidability community. So excellent.
- 29:52You share that plan and so what's happin how do we lene from each
- 29:56other um to look that we are doing as banks collect you on Zell and
- 30:02BNC conversations on fraud and stands on Zell has been tremendous. The performance dad
- 30:07has been amazing. Fund industry to FA levels. How tremendously come bound there.
- 30:12Now it's showing up in other nadias. I'll flout other B to B
- 30:18companies, but Verdio collaborate and you work together. I think you have named
- 30:23blond page or the bad case. Excellent. O gosh, thanks so much
