Abstract
Location-based anomaly detection based on geotagged digital photographs. In some embodiments, a method may include identifying a completed transaction associated with a user. The method may also include determining a transaction geographic location associated with the completed transaction. The method may further include identifying a mobile device associated with the user. The method may also include identifying one or more geotagged digital photographs taken by the mobile device. The method may further include extracting one or more photograph geographic locations from the one or more geotagged digital photographs. The method may also include, in response to determining that the transaction geographic location is not within a threshold distance of any of the one or more photograph geographic locations, identifying the completed transaction as a suspicious transaction and performing a remedial action.
