Fraud detection notes

The fraud scorer now performs lightweight co-occurrence checks for suspicious behavior patterns.

What is detected

  • Shared IP address across different actors within the in-memory tracker.
  • Shared device fingerprint across different actors, stored only as a SHA-256 hash.
  • A review case is created when both signals appear together for the same request pattern.

Privacy considerations

  • Raw device fingerprints are never persisted.
  • Only a one-way SHA-256 hash is used for comparison and case evidence.

Scoring

  • Each trigger adds to the fraud score.
  • Shared IP and shared fingerprint reasons contribute to the score, and a sockpuppet review case is emitted when both are present.
