Reshipping fraud, also known as delivery address fraud, fake address fraud and mule fraud, is where a cyber criminal uses a third party to make fraudulent purchases. Person A is an online criminal and can live anywhere on the globe. Person B is an innocent individual and most likely unaware of what reshipping fraud is and its penalty. Person A has the financial and personal details of Person C, an identity theft victim of Person A. Person A intends to make purchases with Person C’s account, but this individual cannot ship to their own address out of fear of being tracked down by the authorities. So Person A needs an intermediary (Person B) to receive the online goods at their address and reship them to their (Person A’s) address. https://www.signifyd.com/blog/reshipping-fraud/
