OFIRG.com tackle on-line fraud face to face!
December 19, 2006 (Press Release) --
As Christmas approaches the annual shopping frenzy is at its height. The recent increase in on-line shopping has seen on-line fraud rise in turn, costing many businesses thousands of pounds in fraudulent sales and subsequent refunds. The perceived success of Chip & Pin on the high street and seen fraudsters move onto the internet, where just knowing card information is often sufficient to spend at will.
The faceless world of the Internet leaves retailers vulnerable. Not only are on-line companies posed with a greater threat, but banks are charging high fees to reclaim money back for fraudulent transactions on top of the actual refund to cardholders. These “chargebacks” can prove crippling, especially for smaller retailers, and according to OFIRG, many are avoidable.
OFIRG (On-line Fraud In Retail Group) is an on-line organisation that has been set up to combat Internet fraud and help protect retailers and merchants. Their approach is to tackle Fraudsters ‘face to face’ providing clients with a secure delivery service. If a customer is suspected of fraudulent activity, then OFIRG is instructed to deliver the product. Customers are required to provide various forms of additional documented evidence to validate their identity.
OFIRG provide a simple but effective solution for companies in their battle against on-line fraud. Being part of the OFIRG group provides added security. Displaying their logo on your website acts as a powerful deterrent and OFIRG believe that using their “4 warning system” will stop a substantial number of fraudsters before any purchase is made.
