Method and system for preventing illicit use of a telephony platform
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- calculating, based on sub-account usage data of at least a first sub-account and a second sub-account managed by a parent account of a communication platform, a fraud score for the first sub-account, the sub-account usage data including at least sub-account configuration data and communication history data, wherein calculating the fraud score comprises;
generating a first fingerprint from a first image transmitted using the first sub-account;
generating a second fingerprint from a second image transmitted using the second sub-account;
calculating the fraud score at least partially based on a comparison of the first fingerprint and the second fingerprint, the comparison of the first fingerprint and the second fingerprint to determine a similarity between the first image and the second image;
in response to determining that the fraud score satisfies a threshold, providing an external service provider system of the parent account with a notification of illicit behavior of the first sub-account.

Abstract
A system and method for preventing illicit use of a telephony platform that includes enrolling a plurality of accounts on a telecommunications platform, wherein an account includes account configuration; at a fraud detection system of the telecommunications platform, receiving account usage data, wherein the usage data includes at least communication configuration data and billing configuration data of account configuration and further includes communication history of the plurality of accounts; calculating fraud scores of a set of fraud rules from the usage data, wherein at least a sub-set of the fraud rules include conditions of usage data patterns between at least two accounts; detecting when the fraud scores of an account satisfy a fraud threshold; and initiating an action response when a fraud score satisfies the fraud threshold.

8. A system comprising:
-
one or more computer processors; and one or more computer-readable mediums storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more computer processors, cause the system to perform operations comprising; calculating, based on sub-account usage data of at least a first sub-account and a second sub-account managed by a parent account of a communication platform, a fraud score for the first sub-account, the sub-account usage data including at least sub-account configuration data and communication history data, wherein calculating the fraud score comprises; generating a first fingerprint from a first image transmitted using the first sub-account; generating a second fingerprint from a second image transmitted using the second sub-account; calculating the fraud score at least partially based on a comparison of the first fingerprint and the second fingerprint, the comparison of the first fingerprint and the second fingerprint to determine a similarity between the first image and the second image; in response to determining that the fraud score satisfies a threshold, providing an external service provider system of the parent account with a notification of illicit behavior of the first sub-account. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by one or more computer processors of a computing device, cause the computing device to perform operations comprising:
-
calculating, based on sub-account usage data of at least a first sub-account and a second sub-account managed by a parent account of a communication platform, a fraud score for the first sub-account, the sub-account usage data including at least sub-account configuration data and communication history data, wherein calculating the fraud score comprises; generating a first fingerprint from a first image transmitted using the first sub-account; generating a second fingerprint from a second image transmitted using the second sub-account; calculating the fraud score at least partially based on a comparison of the first fingerprint and the second fingerprint, the comparison of the first fingerprint and the second fingerprint to determine a similarity between the first image and the second image; in response to determining that the fraud score satisfies a threshold, providing an external service provider system of the parent account with a notification of illicit behavior of the first sub-count. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
