Abstract

With the rapid development of mobile Internet and finance technology, online e-commerce transactions have been increasing and expanding very fast, which globally brings a lot of convenience and availability to our life, but meanwhile, chances of committing frauds also come in all shapes and sizes. Moreover, fraud detection in online e-commerce transactions is not totally the same to that in the existing areas due to the massive amounts of data generated in e-commerce, which makes the fraudulent transactions more covertly scattered with genuine transactions than before. In this article, a novel scalable and comprehensive approach for fraud detection in online e-commerce transactions is proposed with majorly four logical modules, which uses big data analytics and machine learning algorithms to parallelize the processing of the data from a Chinese e-commerce company. Groups of experimental results show that the approach is more accurate and efficient to detect frauds in online e-commerce transactions and scalable for big data processing to obtain real-time property.
