What affects the IP risk level?

An IP address may receive a higher risk level if we detect patterns such as:
  • Use of VPNs, proxies, or anonymizing networks
  • Many different emails used from the same IP
  • Many different billing addresses used from the same IP
  • Many different payment cards used from the same IP
  • A high-risk device previously seen using this IP
  • A high-risk email previously associated with this IP
  • Unusual or suspicious network activity detected across the iDenfy network
These patterns often indicate shared devices, automated traffic, or previous fraudulent activity.
