SR‑Fraud is a framework that uses a frozen, stateless LLM agent to score transactions in real time while an offline reflection agent proposes boundary hypotheses based on matured errors. The system then verifies these hypotheses deterministically before updating its knowledge state. On a production payment‑fraud benchmark, SR‑Fraud outperforms both static and periodically retrained CatBoost models and successfully detects an emerging fraud burst.

arXiv:2606. 25007v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Financial fraud detection in digital banking requires reasoning over multiple heterogeneous event streams -- transactions, login sessions, risk signals -- that individually appear benign but collectively reveal fraudulent patterns.
The paper introduces the Agentic Commerce Bench (ACB), a benchmark for measuring fraud in AI agents that autonomously spend money. It presents a taxonomy of agentic commerce fraud, a dataset of twenty fraud classes derived from real production data, and an open‑source detector stack called gordonguard for auditing and replaying hostile counterparties. The study shows that current reasoning layers and security scanners perform poorly on many classes, highlighting the need for better detection mechanisms.
arXiv:2607. 23075v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Detecting fake-order fraud at scale remains a critical challenge for large online-to-offline (O2O) service platforms, as existing approaches often rely on expert-designed features, produce black-box decisions, and provide limited interpretability.

FINESSE is an agent‑based simulation framework that generates synthetic, structured datasets of multiple interdependent financial event streams, such as transactions, payments, account status changes, and policy interventions. Each stream has its own action space, schema, and variable types, and the streams are coupled through agents’ evolving latent states, allowing temporally rich interactions. The accompanying FINESSE‑Bench dataset supports four tasks—balance forecasting, transaction fraud detection, missed payment prediction, and next event prediction—and baseline results are provided using various time‑series and event‑sequence methods.
arXiv:2606. 17555v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Banks simultaneously face signature-based fraud (card-not-present attacks, account takeover, ATM cloning) and behavioural financial crime (structuring, layering, mule networks, business email compromise) -- two threat families with fundamentally different detection requirements.

arXiv:2607. 17586v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Money mule accounts are critical facilitators of financial fraud, yet detecting them at scale remains challenging due to the heterogeneous nature of transactional and behavioural data.
