Rule
Suspicious payments trigger red alerts. The overall score associated with a payment indicates the likelihood of fraud occurring. Red alerts trigger these events:
Payments are frozen to a zero (0) status until they are confirmed or released by a Fiserv or sponsor fraud specialist
Notifications of suspicious activity alerts are issued automatically to
Fiserv’s PeopleSoft system.
Note . Fiserv’s FraudNet system generates red alerts only. Yellow alerts are not being generated at this time.
The following table contains a list of current rules (reasons why the payment is being alerted as suspicious behavior). The values of the rules are subject to change.

This rule monitors all newly established MOE merchant payments in the Fiserv system.
Verify the payment with the subscriber.
