Understanding Chargeback Fraud
As an alteration for business, merchants are forced to deal with cases of fraud from time to
time. Plastic money is not all that wholesome. Criminals will seize every opportunity they get
to steal your money. You expect this from them. After all, they are fraudsters. But what if this
is coming from your customers, that would not be acceptable.
Chargeback fraud/Friendly fraud is a more unfair form of treachery. The cardholder files an
unwarranted chargeback with the issuing bank to secure a refund from you. This is for goods
& services already delivered. Usually, a customer will base their claim on undelivered items,
defective merchandise, unauthorized transactions, or a recurring payment that was supposed
to be void.
Why Would a Customer File a Chargeback?
Some of the complaints filed are legitimate. A large number of them may not be. They
regretted purchasing the goods/services and didn’t want to face you about it.
They didn’t know or permit the purchase a family member made.
The cardholder wanted something for free.
They just don’t have an idea of the chargeback process.
The customer was late in asking for a refund.
The consumer may have forgotten about the purchase. Hence they don’t acknowledge
the charge.
The Question of Chargeback Fraud
Evidently, little has been done to counter this form of deceit. Why are more and more
consumers getting away with friendly fraud despite its unfairness?
1. Banks tend to make light of friendly fraud.
While banks are becoming aware of increasing cases of fraudulent chargebacks, they have
not done enough to address the situation. Maybe they are short of resources for this sort of
thing. Or they’re just interested in making their customers happy. But at what cost? Banks
should realize that you are their customer too. By signing off chargeback claims made by
other consumers, they are merely robbing one to pay the other.
2. Merchants find it expensive to fight back.
Mitigation can be quite a pain in the neck. You have to put in the work to secure a successful
operation. Fighting off a single case of friendly fraud is costly and time-consuming. Some
merchants deem the process unworthy of the effort and let it go. What’s one chargeback
anyway, right! Good for you if you are a forward thinker.
3. www.hrma-llc.com

Giving in to chargeback fraud is the outset of your problems. It only attracts more
chargebacks. In the long run, you end up losing way more than you would have spent
disputing the first few. This is not good for your business.
3. Ambiguous Reason Codes.
Banks assign pre-defined reason-codes to false claims filed by the consumers. These codes
are not specific about the reason behind the fraudulent chargebacks. How do you fight
something you don’t recognize? Here, what you don’t know can and will indeed hurt you.
Seek justification for a reason code every time you get one.
You eventually learn to identify cases of friendly fraud and enact the accurate measures to
counter them. Be tenacious. Do not allow your business to suffer losses from something you
can very well avert.
4. Outdated chargeback regulations.
The internet has become a hub for business. Online transactions continue to advance, and so
do fraud tactics. The payment industry, however, has done little to match the fast and rapidly
changing technologies. Chargeback rules may have worked during the pre-internet era. But
they have probably grown rusty with time. The business game has changed and so must the
code.
5. Cardholders prefer chargebacks to refunds.
Consumers think it’s more convenient to file for a chargeback with the bank rather than ask
for a refund from you. After all, it’s easier and faster. Of course, they have no idea of the effect
this has on you.
Chargeback Fraud Prevention Methods
Understanding chargeback fraud means having extensive measures in place to curb the
situation.
1. Follow card processor protocol. Be sure to check signatures, the validity of dates, and
billing addresses. Also, use the card’s security codes to ensure the cardholder is not
an imposter.
2. Enhance your customer care services. Make it easier for a customer to reach you after
a sale. Respond to their complaints quickly and effectively. See to it your consumer
walks away content. While they may ask for a refund, you won’t have to deal with
chargeback fees and its other shortcomings.
3. Employ 3D secure. This works for online debit card and credit card transactions. Have
consumers log in their issuing bank credentials for authorization. Different card
networks have varying 3D secure verification codes.
4. Address Verification Service compares the customer’s address against the issuing
bank’s.
5. Come up with a blacklist to restrict notorious chargeback fraudsters from doing
business with you.
6. Address potential shipping issues to your consumers. Let them know in advance in
case of any delays and laid off shipments.
4. www.hrma-llc.com
4
7. Conduct recurring payments. Ensure you have a sort out understanding with your
customer about these at all times.
8. Delivery confirmations are a good idea. With these, customers have no grounds to file
for chargebacks.
9. Always be a step ahead. Spot and deal with fraudulent chargebacks long before they
get you.
The Significance of The Chargeback Appeal Process
When a customer files a fraudulent chargeback, it’s easy for the merchant to comply. They
don’t appeal as they don’t think the bank will respond. The customer gets away with this one.
So, what’s to prevent them from trying again and again? Keep in mind that failure to uphold
your integrity is an admission of guilt. Should the same consumer file another chargeback, the
bank considers you blameworthy. After all, you did not contest the first one or two.
The cycle escalates, and you are left wondering where you went wrong. Eventually, you
settle on chargebacks as a regular business cost. Hence, it is crucial that you fight every
single fraudulent chargeback. Each win means more money for your business. You stand to
gain lost income and preserve your reputation with banks and customers.
To summarize, the numbers of fraudulent chargebacks that continue to harm merchants are
alarming. Also, steering clear of friendly fraud may be somewhat tricky. External factors such
as banks and dishonest customers see to this. Nevertheless, where prevention has failed, an
effective appeal strategy can make you unshakable. Here is all you need to understand and
confidently face chargeback fraud.
