How Bad Actors are Exploiting Automatic Refunds

1

Your Brand is Targeted in Fraud Chats

Fraudsters discuss return loopholes and share step-by-step guides on how to exploit them.

2

Fraudsters Start a Return

After receiving the merchandise, the fraudster starts a return and requests a shipping label.

3

Return Label is Edited to Redirect Packages

Fraudsters modify the return label’s shipping address, rerouting the package to a nearby location rather than the intended destination.

4

Refund is Trigged on Automatic Processing Event

An automatic refund is triggered when the package status updates to “in-transit” or “delivered,” depending on your brand’s refund policy. If the refund isn’t issued automatically, fraudsters contact the customer service team, using the valid tracking information to claim their refund.
