Email Risk Report

Overview

The Email Risk Report assesses the fraud risk of an email address and confirms its authenticity, and identifies fake and suspicious users. It leverages multiple first-party and third-party data sources to predict the risk of an email address. We often recommend coupling the Email Risk Report with other report types, like Phone Risk Report to help show a fuller picture of the individual.
