How to Find Fraudulent Charges
We recommend you use a smart-tool like the app, SimplyWise!
It can be a lot of work to keep track of all the activity on your credit card/bank statement throughout the month, and apps like SimplyWise store and organize all your receipts and online transactions (including Amazon, Walmart, PayPal, and more!) to provide you with a complete and comprehensive view of your expenses as they occur.
Follow these simple steps to begin avoiding unauthorized charges and gaining better visibility into your spending:
Step 1
Download the SimplyWise app and connect your email account. SimplyWise will search through your emails and find all the receipts in your inbox. This allows you to understand what exactly you are paying for when you see a bank transaction on your statement.
Step 2
Connect to your bank account/credit card transactions through the secure (256 bit encryption) Reconciliation feature within the app.
Step 3
Reconcile the charges reported by your financial institution against what you’ve recorded in your SimplyWise account.
Find fraud quickly!
SimplyWise will match your transactions to your bank/credit card spending and check those items off.
If there are transactions reported by your bank that SimplyWise does not recognize, you’ll see those marked with an alert (!) icon. If after reviewing these charges, you still don’t recognize them, it’s time to call the bank!
