This article will guide merchants through understanding and using suspicious transaction search for Advance Fraud Detection Suite (AFDS) transactions.

The Suspicious Transaction Search page enables you to specifically search for transactions that triggered one or more of the Advance Fraud Detection Suite (AFDS) filters. The Suspicious Transaction Reports provide a quick view of suspicious transactions that have been placed in the Authorized/Pending Review or Pending Review states. These reports only list transactions that are still awaiting review. Once you have reviewed and either approved, declined or voided a transaction, it is removed from the report.
