Invoice fraud detection warnings

Where to find it

Incoming invoices → open an invoice → fraud risk level and signals on the invoice detail

✅ Common tasks

Understand the fraud risk level

1. Open the incoming invoice to see its fraud risk level

2. None means no meaningful fraud indicators were found

3. Low means a minor suspicious cue that may still be legitimate

4. Medium means several indicators together, but not conclusive

5. High means strong scam signs like impersonation or urgency pressure

The risk level never reflects arithmetic, VAT formalities, or PO mismatches — only possible fraud.

Check suspicious details before acting

1. Read the listed fraud signals for the specific reasons flagged

2. Compare the supplier's identity, address, and tax details with the payment account

3. Check for disclaimers that contradict the document's own appearance

4. Look for unsolicited offers, registration fees, or pressure to pay quickly

5. Don't treat a foreign IBAN alone as suspicious

A foreign SEPA account from a fintech like Wise or Revolut is normal and not a fraud signal by itself.

Hold or dismiss the warning

1. Don't pay or approve the invoice while concerns remain

2. Complete your usual approval checks once satisfied

3. Dismiss the warning only when you're confident the document is legitimate

Dismissing resets the risk level to None but doesn't confirm the invoice is otherwise correct — still check VAT and amounts.
