Story 1:
In 2019, American Express blocked a fraudulent transaction on a customer's account. The customer had received an email that appeared to be from American Express, but it was actually a phishing scam. The customer clicked on a link in the email and entered their login credentials. The scammers then used the customer's login credentials to access their American Express account and make a fraudulent purchase.
However, because the customer had completed their KYC verification, American Express was able to identify the fraudulent transaction and block it. The customer's account was protected and they did not lose any money.
Story 2:
In 2020, American Express was able to prevent a money laundering scheme. A group of individuals was using American Express cards to launder money. They would purchase items with the cards and then return the items for cash. The cash would then be used to purchase more American Express cards.
However, because American Express had implemented KYC verification, the company was able to identify the individuals involved in the scheme and close their accounts. The scheme was stopped and the money launderers were unable to profit from their crime.
Story 3:
In 2021, American Express was able to help a customer recover their account after it was hacked. The customer's account had been compromised and the hackers had changed the customer's password and contact information. The customer was unable to access their account or contact American Express customer service.
However, because the customer had completed their KYC verification, American Express was able to verify the customer's identity and recover their account. The customer was able to regain access to their account and their money was safe.
