The latest piece of groundbreaking industry research from dispute resolution specialist Chargebacks911, The 2021 Chargeback Field Report assessed over 400 merchants across the US and the UK and identified a dramatic rise in friendly fraud over the past three years, with 80% of merchants seeing an increase in false claims.
