Wespay Town Hall: A2A Fraud
Description
Account to Account (A2A) ACH Debit Origination for new account funding or funds transfers continues to gain popularity among our Wespay members. Unfortunately so does the fraud related to this service. ODFIs warrant all Entries are authorized by a Receiver; for the purposes of that Warranty the Receiver is defined as “all persons whose signatures are required for the withdrawal of funds from the account”. Consequently, when a debit is not properly authorized by a Receiver the ODFI is liable, even well beyond the RDFIs Extended Return Timeframe. Join Wespay for this complimentary Town Hall as we discuss techniques our members can implement to help identify and mitigate the risk for what is perhaps the most common fraud-related topic we receive on the Payments Hotline.
