<p>Fraudulent callers that masquerade as legitimate callers in order to discover details of bank accounts or other accounts are an increasing problem. In order to detect possible fraudsters and preventing them from obtaining such details a method and system is proposed that transform the recorded speech of a batch of incoming calls to strings of phonemes or text. Thereafter similar speech patterns, such as distinct similar phrases or wording, in the recorded speech are determined and calls having similar speech patterns, and preferably also similar acoustic properties, are grouped together and identified as being from the same fraudulent caller. Transactions initiated by the fraudulent caller can as a result be stopped and preferably a voiceprint of the fraudulent caller's speech is generated and stored in a database for further use.</p> |
