This document discusses methods for detecting credit card fraud using predictive modeling. It analyzes credit card transaction data from September 2013 involving European cardholders using logistic regression, predictive modeling, and decision tree techniques. Logistic regression is used to predict binary outcomes and provide fraud detection. Predictive modeling is employed to create reusable models trained on historical data. Decision trees are also used to analyze the data and make classifications. The proposed approach provides around 90% accuracy in detecting fraudulent transactions according to a confusion matrix analysis.
