Online, October 23, 2012 (Newswire.com) - cVidya Networks, (www.cvidya.com) a global leader and innovative provider of Revenue Intelligence solutions for Telecom, Media and Entertainment service providers, announced today the detection of a large scale bypass fraud scam in APAC through the implementation of cVidya's Fraud Management solution, FraudView. The call bypass systems implemented are said to have incurred fraud losses in the millions of dollars. cVidya's FraudView detected the illegal simbox use within hours from the solution implementation. With the information gathered by FraudView, authorities were able to locate and apprehend the fraudster immediately.

FraudView detected and located the person behind the fraud ring using its innovative bypass fraud system. The accused man was arrested in his home by local authorities. The operator filed the complaint with the authorities after discovering a very high volume of international calls made from a single location where the suspect lived. This FraudView system currently covers thirty million subscribers and detects thousands of bypass cases daily. The fraudster was found with various types of sophisticated telecom fraud equipment in his home which were seized by authorities. Bypass fraud allows for an international call to look like a local call so that telecom operators are not able to receive long distance charges and other fees.

"cVidya is ranked by leading research firms among the top RA & FM vendors worldwide. With our award-winning software and amazing team of specialists we were able to uncover this scheme.
