Fictitious Business and Address Fraud Detection

A fraud analyst at a payment processor investigating suspicious merchant applications checks whether the applicant's business name, phone number, and street address appear in this registry, flagging cases where the address resolves to a residential unit or the phone number is shared across multiple unrelated business names as indicators of synthetic business identity.
