AI-Based Fraud Detection

System for Online


Transactions with Real-Time
Alerts.
Introduction
• Online transactions are increasing rapidly.
• Fraud detection is critical for financial security.
• Traditional rule-based methods are ineffective.
• AI and Machine Learning (ML) offer real-time fraud detection.
• Our system enhances fraud detection accuracy and alerts users in real
time.
Problem Statement
• Financial fraud is a major concern for banks and e-commerce
platforms.
• Fraudulent transactions are difficult to detect with conventional
methods.
• Need for an AI-driven approach to classify transactions as safe or
fraudulent.
• A system that provides real-time predictions and alerts is essential.
Objectives
✔ Develop a machine learning model to detect fraudulent
transactions.
✔ Improve accuracy using data preprocessing techniques.
✔ Deploy the system as a Flask-based web application.
✔ Provide real-time fraud alerts via email notifications.
✔ Make the system accessible online for real-world testing.
