MaxMind minFraud can be used to detect fraudulent credit card applications. Credit fraud in this case refers to a form of identity theft where the criminal uses another person's identity to apply for a credit card under the stolen identity. Both the issuing bank and the person whose identity was used for the credit card suffer as a result of this type of fraud.
