The Problem

Most fraud stacks were built for stolen cards, chargebacks, and obviously malicious users.

That is no longer enough.

The newer margin killer is first-party abuse:

  • a user creates multiple accounts to recycle free trials;
  • a real card is used, but only to unlock high-cost usage before abandonment;
  • promo mechanics are replayed across aliases or device variations;
  • refund flows are weaponized after goods or services were already consumed.

For AI-native products, the pain is even worse because the cost is not just lost revenue — it is burned compute, support burden, distorted growth metrics, and noisy conversion data.
