# Fraud Detection

> Enable fraud detection to assess leads based on IP reputation, user agent behavior, and fraud scoring to block low-quality or suspicious entries.

Fraud Detection helps identify and block potentially fraudulent leads by evaluating IP addresses, user agent signatures, and other device metadata.

## Source-Level Fraud Detection

**Configuration Path:**\
`Sources > Single View > Integrations Tab > Fraud Detection`

### Functionality:

* Enable the **Fraud Detection** toggle to activate fraud scoring on leads submitted through the **Lead Form API**, **Ping API**, and **Post API**.
* Define a **fraud score range**. Leads whose score falls within this range will be automatically rejected and **not stored**.
* You may optionally:
  * Enable **Store Rejected Lead**: This stores leads even if they're flagged as fraudulent.
  * Enable **Force Process Lead**: Processes and distributes the lead despite its fraud score classification.

### Fraud Score Classifications:

| Score Range | Classification |
| ----------- | -------------- |
| 0–24        | Good           |
| 25–49       | Warning        |
| 50–74       | Poor           |
| 75–100      | Bad            |

> **Tip:** Use score-based rejection to optimize quality and reduce invalid lead risk.

## Funnel Form Flow Step-Level Fraud Detection

**Configuration Path:**\
`Campaign > Funnel Builder > Form Flows > [Step] > Settings Sub-tab > Check Fraud Detection`

<img className="block" src="https://mintcdn.com/pingtree/hqAE1iDV4Jw4gz-D/assets/images/docs/documentations/integrations/fraud-2.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=hqAE1iDV4Jw4gz-D&q=85&s=d0882d3681ad49f1d0792c6699dcec1f" alt="integrations" width="1135" height="848" data-path="assets/images/docs/documentations/integrations/fraud-2.png" />

### Functionality:

* Enable the **Check Fraud Detection** toggle on a specific step.
* This triggers fraud scoring logic on the form flow, leveraging source-linked configuration.
* The following values are stored in the lead record for each submission:
  * `fraud_score`: Numeric value (0–100)
  * `fraud_class`: Score classification label (Good, Warning, Poor, Bad)

***

> **Note:** Funnel-level fraud detection honors the source’s fraud configuration, but allows step-specific enforcement within the lead journey.
