Prevention is better than cure...

An open, privacy-friendly and community-driven way to prevent fraud online.


Example Response

See the example below for the results of a /orders API call. This is a POST call containing hashes and optionally VAT number and IP address. The hashes will be checked in the Nilfraud database for other community supplied reports. VAT numbers are validated through the EU VIES service. IP addresses that are submitted are automatically truncated to a subnet and validated in a local open-source database.
