Abstract

Internal frauds in the banking industry represent a huge cost and this problem is particularly difficult to solve because, by construction, swindlers being very imaginative persons, the fraud schemata evolves continuously. Fraud detection systems must then learn from the continuously new fraud schematas, making them difficult to design. This paper proposes a new theoretical and practical approach to detect internal frauds and to model fraud schematas. This approach is based on a particular method of abstraction that reduces the complexity of the problem from O(n2) to O(n) making its implementation in a an Java program that detects and models the frauds in real time and online with a simple professional personal computer. The results of this program are presented with its application on a real-world fraud provided by a world wide French bank.
