  3. If the customer selects Yes to the question Do you know the recipient?, the system then displays the Do you believe that you were scammed?question.
  4. If the customer response is Yes, the system displays the next question, Did this involve a purchase of merchandise or service?.

Fraud confirmation

After a review, the CSR is presented with the Refer this to the fraud investigation team for review? option.

When the customer selects No to the question Did this involve a purchase of merchandise or service?, the additional information must be provided first, before the option to refer the case to the fraud investigation team is presented. If the CSR believes that there is reason to proceed, the case is routed to the Zelle_Fraud workbasket for additional investigation.

When a fraud investigator or appropriate resource retrieves the case from the fraud workbasket, they review the information that was captured during the client conversation. If the investigator selects Yes to the question Is this a fraudulent transaction?, upon submission, the case is resolved as Resolved-Fraud with appropriate accounting. If the investigator selects No, then the case is routed to the Capture resolution stage, in which the fraud investigator can selectto resolve the case as either Courtesy write-off or Sender liable. This response can be extended or automated based on individual bank policy regarding courtesy write-offs. The following figure shows an example of the Fraud confirmation section:
