Riskified Champions Fraud Prevention as a Leading Partner of International Fraud Awareness Week 2025

Riskified (NYSE: RSKD), a global leader in ecommerce fraud prevention and risk intelligence, announces its participation in International Fraud Awareness Week, taking place November 16–22, 2025. Joining hundreds of organizations worldwide, Riskified aims to raise awareness about the urgent need to fight fraud and help safeguard merchants and their customers globally, especially as online shopping heats up ahead of the holidays.

Deloitte forecasts holiday ecommerce sales of $305–$311 billion in 2025, bringing a wave of new and returning customers and incremental revenue to businesses. Unfortunately, this growth also presents fraudsters with an enticing opportunity: losses from ecommerce fraud are projected to reach $107 billion by 2029, according to Juniper Research.

AI is reshaping both shopping behavior and criminal tactics at unprecedented speed. Riskified data shows that in Q3 2025, the number of merchants receiving orders from GenAI channels tripled compared to the beginning of the year. In Q3 alone, traffic from GenAI-powered shopping tools was 1.1–1.7 times riskier than typical search traffic. Alongside emerging risks from agentic commerce and AI-driven fraud schemes, this highlights the urgent need for merchants to protect transactions, operations, and customers with advanced strategies and technologies.

“Agents are fundamentally changing the way people shop, enabling greater convenience but also introducing new points of vulnerability,” said Jeff Otto, Chief Marketing Officer at Riskified. “Fraud teams are uniquely positioned to protect both merchants and consumers; they build the guardrails that enable the safe and confident adoption of ecommerce innovation. During the holiday season and beyond, our goal is to ensure all ecommerce channels are sustainable revenue drivers, not vectors for fraud and abuse.”

As an official supporter of International Fraud Awareness Week, Riskified has launched a series of initiatives designed to promote anti-fraud education and vigilance. A centerpiece of our efforts this year is the second annual billboard campaign powered by the New York Stock Exchange. Located in the heart of Times Square in New York City, and, for the first time this year, in Silicon Valley, these billboards spotlight merchants who invest in creating a safe and secure holiday shopping experience for their customers.
