Description

A Credit Card Security System.
The present invention is concerned with a credit card security system which is able to reduce the fraudulent use of a card. The problem of fraudulent use of a credit card will be familiar to most and is becoming more serious as credit card and like transactions become more commonplace. A frequent problem results from a credit card or card data being stolen and used fraudulently for hours or even days, while the card holder is unaware of the abuse and so unable to alert the card issuer. In the ordinary course of implementing a credit card transaction it is commonplace that the transaction will be recorded immediately to a server, if the transaction takes place in a conventional shop this is usually achieved by swiping the card through a transaction machine and the machine then addresses a remote card credit checking server provided by the credit card issuer and interrogates a database in the remote credit checking server for credit worthiness. The credit checking server will then respond by issuing signals to the transaction machine either approving the transaction or rejecting the transaction. In the case of remote transactions, it is usual that the credit card details are logged directly to a vendor's in house transaction system, either manually if the transaction is a telephone sale or directly if the sale is via the world wide web. The present invention seeks to take advantage of the existing system of processing credit card transactions and so improve credit card security at minimal cost Accordingly the present invention provides a credit card security system having: a credit card bearing data corresponding to a card holder account a security server arranged to receive said card holder account data when a credit card account transaction is initiated and responsive to receipt of said data to transmit a message immediately to at least one of a mobile phone account in the name of said card holder or an email account in the name of said cardholder. According to a second aspect of the present invention there is provided a method of improved credit card security comprising the steps of: initiating a transaction by communicating data corresponding to a card holder account to a vendor, said vendor communicating said card holder account data to a security server, said security server responding to said credit card holder account data by addressing at least one of mobile phone account data or email account data previously provided by the credit card holder, and sending at least one of an SMS message or email to said mobile phone or email account. By immediately transmitting a message to the legitimate card holder's mobile phone and/or email account the legitimate card holder is immediately (often in a period of less than 30 seconds and usually less than 300 seconds) warned that use is being made of his card. By conventional means the credit card user may be unaware of the abuse of his card until he receives the monthly card balance probably days or weeks later, even then the abuse may not be instantly obvious. Thus the present invention gives a clear and immediate warning if the credit card account is being used fraudulently and this will give the legitimate card holder a very early opportunity to alert the credit card provider to the fraudulent use so that steps can be taken to prevent further abuse. The mobile phone account data and/or email account data may be presented on the card in which case it is preferable that the data is encrypted and in machine readable form, such as the conventional magnetic strip or electronic memory. However, it is preferred that the credit card provider pre-loads the mobile phone and/or email account data onto the security server. The credit checking server or a server in close communication with the credit checking server may conveniently serve as the credit checking server. In this way the mobile phone data and email account data is not available to a thief and the mobile phone and email data can be readily managed by the credit card provider in cooperation with the credit checking service provider. In this - ~
preferred embodiment of the invention the security server has means to receive said card holder account data when a credit card account transaction is initiated, memory means which holds card holder account data, and memory means holding at least one of mobile phone account data or email account data. The security server is responsive to receipt of said card holder account data to recover at least one of the mobile phone account data or email account data corresponding to said card holder account data received from memory and has transmission means to transmit a message immediately to at least one of the mobile phone account or email account corresponding to said card holder. It is preferred that the message is a text message.
The security system and method may be further enhanced by enabling the card holder's mobile phone to respond to the message with a default stop or proceed message to stop or expedite the transaction. A stop message might then be retransmitted from the security server to the vendor so that if the transaction is fraudulent the transaction can be stopped by the vendor. Preferably the mobile phone would be adapted to present the message in a way which allows the credit card holder to respond to the message from a soft key, selecting proceed or stop, alternatively one or two of the phone keys may be used to transmit a default, proceed or stop message to the security server. The security system may be set to allow a transaction to proceed if no response is received from the mobile phone within a predetermined period, for example, ninety seconds. This will allow transactions to proceed where the mobile phone is out of service for any reason.
Embodiments of a credit card security system constructed and operated according to the system and method of the present invention will now be describe, by way of example only, with reference to the accompanying illustrative drawings, in which: Figure 1 is a first embodiment of the system, and Figure 2 is a second embodiment of the invention. Figure 1 shows a credit card transaction being implemented using the security system. At 1 data indicative of the credit card account is input to a vendor's transaction computer/server 2. The data input may be via a card reader, by manual input, direct input via internet access or by any other conventional means. This data is processed in the usual way and communicated via normal telecommunication 3 to security server provided in this example by a card credit checking server 4 in two way communication with the vendors server 2. The card credit checking server 4 includes a register of email addresses and cellular mobile phone numbers which correspond to each credit card account. Upon receipt of the credit card account data the card credit checking server addresses the corresponding mobile phone account number and/or email address and forwards a predetermined message to an internet server 5 and/or a cellular network server 6 and hence to the credit card holder's mobile phone 7 or computer 8. The message will preferably be a text message and may in addition to an indication that a transaction has been implemented include further information data such as the location, time and value of the transaction. Particularly if this further information is delivered to a PC or other handheld type device this will allow credit card holders to maintain nearly instant monitoring of their credit card account balance in addition to enhancing the security of the account.
Although this specification refers particularly to credit cards, it should be appreciated that the term credit card may also include debit cards and other forms of payment card, including; smart cards, stored value cards and any other microprocessor payment system embedded in hand held devices like mobile phones or personal digital assistants (PDA's). These chip cards will have a processor, ROM and RAM, an operating system and even co-processor power for handling Crypto Algorithms in real time allowing the card or handheld device to trust or distrust a terminal on or off-line. Such a terminal will have the ability to intelligently interrogate a payment card or hand held device micro-processor payment system and locally satisfy itself that the card is trustworthy. It may also have application where card like devices are used in smart security systems as a key to provide access to restricted areas, in such instances the unauthorised use of an authorised key would be alerted to the authorised user.
Figure 2 diagrammatically illustrates a second embodiment of the invention. The components of the system common to the first embodiment are similarly numbered and only the differences between the two embodiments will be described. When the security server 6 generates a message to the mobile phone 7a the message includes code to generate one of two response messages from the phone. Thus when a message such as that illustrated on the phone display is received it includes that the message is a "credit card transaction alert" here abbreviated to "CC TRNS ALT" the date and time and the location "@XXXXXXX" there is additionally a question "PROCEED?" 9. The message establishes a softkey 9 option "YES" to respond with a proceed message and option "NO" to respond with a stop message. In the figure, "NO" is selected which message 10 is transmitted to the cellular network server 6. The message from the phone will include code to identify the phone. This is then retransmitted to the card credit checking and security server 4 which matches the phone to the transaction in issue by correlation with a register of mobile phone account data. Thus a stop message reaches the vendor's transaction server 2 where steps may be implemented in a conventional manner to stop the transaction. The security server 4 will ordinarily wait for a period, for example ninety seconds, before emitting a proceed message based on conventional card credit criteria. Thus the proceed message may expedite a transaction. Conversely a stop message from the mobile phone or any stop transaction message based on other criteria will take priority.
