Visa Fraud Type Codes
| Fraud Type | Description |
|---|---|
| 0 | Lost: Cardholder is NOT in possession of card and does not know what happened to it |
| 1 | Stolen: Cardholder is NOT in possession of card and may have an explanation as to how the card went missing (e.g. stolen wallet) |
| 2 | NRI: Not Received as Issued - card was mailed but never received by cardholder |
| 3 | Fraud Application: Account was opened based on true name or synthetic cardholder information |
| 4 | Counterfeit: Cardholder is in possession of card; Card Present transactions have occurred that were not made by the cardholder |
| 5 | Miscellaneous: Cannot be categorized under another Fraud Type, such as but not limited to: - Multiple draft imprints obtained unlawfully from a legitimate card. - Unauthorized alterations to a sales draft. |
| 6 | Fraudulent Use of Account Number: Account number used in the non-face-to-face environment (Card Not Present) including mail order, telephone order, recurring payments, installments and eCommerce (internet) transactions |
| A | Incorrect Processing: Fraudulent transaction was made possible due to incorrect processing. This type identifies situations in which lack of validating a security element was the factor that enabled fraud to occur. For example: - Fraudulent EMV transaction resulting from lack of cryptogram validation. Vulnerabilities in the implementation of EMV may allow fraudsters to use a chip cards with fake cryptograms. - Fraudulent transaction on a magnetic stripe transaction resulting from lack of Card Verification Value (CVV) validation |
| B | Account or Credential takeover: Fraud resulted from fraudsters taking over an account or credentials from a legitimate client. Examples may include: - Use of personally identifiable information (PII) to circumvent the issuer's authentication process or cardholder's stolen credentials for requesting a new bank- issued card for fraudulent use. - Fraudulent use of card data and PII to circumvent the issuer's authentication process and enable provisioning of the payment card onto a mobile device / digital wallet, which is subsequently used for fraudulent purchases. - Fraudulent use of the cardholder's digital wallet via stolen user credentials (i.e., mobile passcode, wallet login information). |
| C | Merchant Misrepresentation: Fraud resulting from a merchant deliberately misleading the account holder. Examples may include: - A merchant fraudulently selling items that are not as they seem or sub- standard, charging more than anticipated or for a longer term, or charging for a service that the consumer can get for free through another channel for the purpose of conducting fraudulent activity. |
| D | Manipulation of Account Holder: Fraud resulting from a merchant manipulating an account holder into completing what they believe to be a legitimate transaction. This fraud type has been added to support Visa Direct and European PSD2 regulations. Examples may include: - Account holder manipulated into sending funds to a fraudulent beneficiary when the sender believes they will gain fictitious riches or help an individual in distress, a struggling business, or to pay medical fees. - A fraudster contacting the sender to impersonate a known supplier, trusted organization, or business in order to request a change of payment details for a transaction or to request a payment to a fraudulent account. |
