METHOD, MEDIUM, AND SYSTEM FOR REDUCING FRAUD
Techniques for reducing fraud are disclosed. A transaction request is received from a user to perform a transaction using an account. In one approach, a source icon is displayed prior to executing the request. The source icon includes a graphical representation of an owner of the account. In another approach, at least one of a photograph and a voice of the user is recorded prior to executing the request. In a third approach, the user is informed that at least one of a photograph, a voice print, and location data will be taken prior to executing the transaction request.

2 . A point of sale terminal, comprising:
a processor configured to:
facilitate a near field communication (NFC) transaction involving the point of sale terminal and a mobile device comprising an NFC chip, wherein completion of the transaction is based at least in part on a fraud detection analysis performed by the mobile device, and wherein the performing of the fraud detection analysis by the mobile device comprises:
capturing, at least in part by using a camera of the mobile device, first biometric information and second biometric information of a user; and
based at least in part on the captured first and second biometric information, performing the fraud detection analysis, the fraud detection analysis comprising a determination of whether the user is alive; and
a memory coupled to the processor and configured to provide the processor with instructions.
