Mule Account Database

When to use it

The Mule Account Database helps identify and flag accounts suspected of being used for money-mule activity — accounts used to move or launder funds on behalf of a fraud ring rather than by their legitimate owner. It covers two complementary operations: reporting a suspected mule account (contributing to a shared record), and searching for one (checking a person or face against what's already been reported).

Report vs Search

• Report a mule account — submit a suspected account together with whatever identity information you hold on it: a photo of the ID card, structured identity details (name, date of birth, ID number, country), or both. A severity flag records how confident the report is, from an initial report through confirmed and blacklisted.
• Search for a mule account — check a person or face against everything reported so far, using the same kind of identity evidence. The result tells you the most severe match found, how many matches there were, and which severity flags were involved.

Both operations also accept a precomputed face embedding instead of a raw image, for customers who already run their own face-recognition pipeline.
