Email Risk Scoring & Fraud Detection Tool

Protect your business with smarter email intelligence.

Fraudo.io helps you stop fraud in its tracks with deep email risk analysis, real-time scoring, and global threat data without slowing down your users.

Email addresses aren’t just login credentials. They are risk signals. From fake signups to suspicious transactions, most fraud begins with a risky email. Fraudo.io goes beyond basic email validation by analyzing 30+ behavioral, network, and reputation signals to identify high-risk users before damage occurs.

Whether you’re screening signups, scoring payments, or cleaning email lists, our system detects warning signs others miss.

What Is Email Fraud?

Email fraud happens when bad actors use fake, stolen, or manipulated email addresses to abuse platforms, bypass security, or steal value. Fraudsters rely on emails to create accounts, trigger bonuses, pass payment checks, and hide their identity.

Because email is often the first touchpoint, detecting risk early is critical.

Common Types of Email Fraud

1. Fake Account Creation

Fraudsters generate bulk email accounts to exploit sign-up offers, referrals, or gated features.

2. Payment & Chargeback Fraud

Stolen or compromised emails are used during transactions that later result in chargebacks or disputes.

3. Bonus & Promotion Abuse

Multiple email identities are created to repeatedly claim rewards, credits, or discounts.

4. Account Takeover & Identity Spoofing

Legitimate emails are hijacked or mimicked to gain unauthorized access to user accounts.

Why Email Risk Scoring Matters

Not all emails are equal. Some appear legitimate but carry a history of abuse. Others are newly created throwaway accounts designed for short-term fraud.

Fraudo.io blends deep pattern analysis with data from millions of global interactions every day to help you detect:

  • Fake registrations
  • Fraudulent applications
  • Risky or stolen payment attempts
  • Bonus abuse
  • Chargeback scams
  • Identity spoofing

We track behavior across emails, IPs, devices, and networks to uncover hidden fraud relationships before they escalate.

Catch Fake Accounts. Spot Risky Payments. Keep Your Platform Clean.

At Fraudo.io, we identify bad actors the moment an email is entered. From fake signups to suspicious payments, email behavior is often the first red flag.

Our system analyzes 30+ real-time email signals to deliver a fast, accurate Fraud Score that gives you clarity without guesswork.

Block Fraud Before It Starts From the Email Itself

Fraudsters rely on disposable domains, newly created inboxes, and recycled accounts. Fraudo.io looks far beyond surface-level checks.

We scan thousands of behavioral patterns using global intelligence sources and our own honeypot network to flag fraud at the email level.

You can integrate our Email Risk API or use the dashboard to instantly receive a clear Fraud Score that shows who to trust and who to block.

How Fraudo.io Scores Email Risk

Every email goes through multiple layers of analysis to uncover hidden risk.

  • Email Age & Behavior
    Older, active emails typically belong to real users. Newly created or inactive emails raise red flags.
  • Domain Reputation
    We score domains using long-term reputation data. Disposable or spam-heavy providers increase risk.
  • Email Usage Trends
    Abnormal signup, login, or transaction frequency signals automated or coordinated abuse.
  • Formatting Anomalies
    Random characters, excessive numbers, or unnatural structures often indicate fake emails.
  • User Identity Matching
    We cross-check names, locations, and phone data where available to detect mismatches.
  • Blacklist & Dark Data Monitoring
    Emails linked to breaches, fraud databases, or prior abuse are flagged instantly.

Detect Suspicious Emails Before They Cause Damage

Fraudo.io processes billions of fraud signals daily across login attempts, transactions, and known abuse patterns.

If fraud rings begin abusing popular providers or disposable domains, we detect it early. If they reuse IPs or cycle identities, we catch that too.

  • Early detection of synthetic or stolen identities
  • Global coverage with real-time responses
  • Adaptive scoring that evolves with new fraud tactics

Unlike static blacklists, our system updates continuously.
