Abstract
The APPARATUSES, METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR A TRACKABLE VIRTUAL CURRENCIES PLATFORM (“TVC”) transform user transaction request input via various TVC components into transaction result output. In one embodiment, information regarding a virtual currency transaction including a user identifier of a user associated with the virtual currency transaction may be received. A potential fraud event threshold score for the user may be calculated by analyzing past fraud data associated with the user, and a virtual currency transaction fraud score may be calculated by analyzing the user's social graph and the user's prior game play patterns. If the virtual currency transaction fraud score exceeds the potential fraud event threshold score for the user, the virtual currency transaction may be identified as potentially fraudulent.
