1. A computer system for detecting fraudulent activity comprising:
- a memory storing data describing a suspect activity including a plurality of attributes and a plurality of authentic activities including a plurality of authentic attribute values,each attribute of the plurality of attributes comprising an actual value and being associated with an expected value, and each of the plurality of authentic activities sharing at least one common characteristic with the suspect activity, the plurality of authentic attribute values having a standard deviation; and
an interface coupled to the memory to;
receive, from an analytics engine, a fraud alert comprising an indication of the suspect activity;
determine at least one reason code, at least in part, based on parsing the fraud alert;
correlate, using a data structure, the at least one reason code with at least one user interface component;
select the at least one user interface component based on the fraud alert and the correlating of the at least one reason code; and
present a representation of differences using the at least one selected user interface component, the representation comprising a plurality of axes, each axis indicating a set of potential values for a difference between the actual value of, and the expected value associated with, each attribute of the plurality of attributes of the suspect activity,wherein the representation of differences includes at least one geometric shape that represents a set of reference values, the at least one geometric shape including a plurality of concentric circles, andwherein each of the plurality of concentric circles has a center, a circumference and a radius with a distance indicating that a value represented by the center differs from a value represented by any point on the circumference by a multiple of the standard deviation.

Abstract
Systems and methods for presenting fraud detection information are presented. In one example, a computer system analyzes empirical data to detect potentially fraudulent activity and alerts users of the potentially fraudulent activity via a fraud detection user interface. The fraud detection user interface determines a set of user interface components to suitable to present the potentially fraudulent activity and presents facts associated with the potentially fraudulent activity to a user for further analysis and investigation.

9. A computer implemented method for detecting fraudulent activity, the method comprising:
-
storing, using a processor, data describing a suspect activity in a memory, the suspect activity including a plurality of attributes, each attribute of the plurality of attributes including an actual value and being associated with an expected value; storing, using the processor, data describing a plurality of authentic activities including a plurality of authentic attribute values, each of the plurality of authentic activities sharing at least one common characteristic with the suspect activity, the plurality of authentic attribute values having a standard deviation; receiving, from an analytics engine, a fraud alert comprising an indication of the suspect activity; determine at least one reason code, at least in part, based on parsing the fraud alert; correlating, using a data structure, the at least one reason code with at least one user interface component; selecting at least one user interface component based on the fraud alert and the correlating of the at least one reason code; and presenting a representation of differences using the at least one selected user interface component, the representation comprising a plurality of axes, each axis indicating a set of potential values for a difference between the actual value of, and the expected value associated with, each attribute of the plurality of attributes of the suspect activity, wherein presenting the representation of differences using the at least one selected user interface component includes presenting at least one geometric shape that represents at least one set of reference values, and wherein the at least one geometric shape includes presenting a plurality of concentric circles, each of the plurality of concentric circles having a center, a circumference and a radius with a distance indicating that value represented by the center of the circle differs from a value represented by any point on the circumference by a multiple of the standard deviation. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13)

14. A non-transitory computer readable medium having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by at least one processor, instruct the at least one processor to perform a method for detecting potentially fraudulent activity, the method comprising:
-
storing data describing a suspect activity, the suspect activity including a plurality of attributes, each attribute of the plurality of attributes including an actual value and being associated with an expected value; storing data describing a plurality of authentic activities including a plurality of authentic attribute values, each of the plurality of authentic activities sharing at least one common characteristic with the suspect activity, the plurality of authentic attribute values having a standard deviation; receiving, from an analytics engine, a fraud alert comprising an indication of the suspect activity; determining at least one reason code, at least in part, based on parsing the fraud alert; correlating, using a data structure, the at least one reason code with at least one user interface component in association with presentation of the fraud alert; selecting at least one user interface component based on the fraud alert and the correlating of the at least one reason code; and presenting a representation of differences using the at least one selected user interface component, the representation including a plurality of axes, each axis indicating a set of values for a difference between the actual value of, and the expected value associated with, each attribute of the plurality of attributes of the suspect activity, the representation of differences including at least one geometric shape that represents at least one set of reference values, and wherein the at least one geometric shape comprises a plurality of concentric circles, each of the plurality of concentric circles having a center, a circumference and a radius with a distance indicating that a value represented by the center of the circle differs from a value represented by any point on the circumference by a multiple of the standard deviation.
