FRAUD FIGHTERS Ã…lands Penningautomatforening (PAF), a Finland-based online casino provider, is teaming up with Ethoca, a fraud management company, to create a safer environment for e-commerce.
In addition to fraudulent chargebacks, the pair is seeking to halt other deceitful or strategic activities such as chip dumping, which is when a player strategically loses to benefit other players.
"As a gaming company, fraud is far more than a chargeback," Marko Hietala, head of fraud and forensics for PAF, said in a prepared statement. "It is any unwanted activity that threatens our bottom line and impacts the integrity of the environment of our loyal players.
"PAF has been building a powerful internal fraud team to tackle these activities, and we see Ethoca as the perfect partner to keep chip dumping at bay," Hietala added.
