ARLINGTON, Va. – Even as the cost of credit card fraud continues to soar, fewer than 50% of Visa accounts are now using EMV technology, which will help mitigate the problem, Senior Director of North American Risk Services Lori Hodges said.
Speaking at the PSCU-sponsored Focus on Fraud Perspectives Thought Leadership, which took place at the Renaissance Arlington Capital View, Hodges said the cost of credit card fraud in the U.S. grew 85% between 2011 and 2015.
