Ecommerce Fraud Prevention

Stop Item Not Received Fraud

False non-receipt claims cost online retailers billions each year. Certified packing evidence proves exactly what was shipped, turning every chargeback into a winnable dispute.

Why False Non-Receipt Claims Are So Hard to Fight

A customer claims their order never arrived — or that the box was empty. Without evidence of what was actually packed, merchants are left paying for goods they genuinely shipped.

Chargebacks You Cannot Contest

When a buyer files a non-receipt claim, delivery confirmation only proves a parcel arrived — not what was inside. Payment processors almost always side with the cardholder.

Serial Offenders Exploiting the System

Fraudsters learn which merchants lack packing evidence and target them repeatedly. Without a way to flag and prove repeat false claims, the same bad actors drain revenue month after month.

Delivery Signatures Prove Nothing About Contents

A signed-for package demonstrates someone accepted a box. It says nothing about whether the correct items were inside, leaving a gap that dishonest buyers exploit with ease.

Disputed Orders Consume Operational Resources

Every false claim triggers a chain of investigation — customer service emails, warehouse checks, carrier enquiries — that pulls staff away from fulfilling legitimate orders.

Why This Type of Fraud Persists

No Link Between Packing and Shipment Records

Most warehouses track inventory and shipping separately. There is no verifiable record connecting specific items to a specific parcel at the moment it was sealed.

Buyer-Friendly Dispute Policies

Card networks and marketplace platforms default to protecting the purchaser. Merchants bear the burden of proof, yet rarely have evidence that meets the required standard.

Unsecured Photo Evidence Is Easily Dismissed

Phone photos with no timestamp verification or chain of custody are trivial to challenge. Dispute teams know these images can be taken at any time and of any order.

Fraud Detection Happens After the Loss

Traditional fraud tools flag suspicious accounts based on historical patterns. By the time a repeat offender is identified, the merchant has already absorbed multiple losses.

Carriers Accept No Responsibility for Contents

Logistics providers guarantee delivery of a parcel, not its contents. Once the tracking shows delivered, the carrier's obligation ends — and the merchant is on their own.

How Certified Packing Evidence Eliminates False Claims

PackProof creates a tamper-proof, time-stamped record of every item packed into every parcel. When a buyer claims non-receipt, you respond with undeniable proof.

Irrefutable Proof of What Was Shipped

Video evidence sealed with a SHA-512 cryptographic hash shows the exact contents of each parcel. The hash confirms the recording has not been altered since capture.

Timestamps That Match Shipment Data

Every sealed record carries an immutable timestamp. Cross-reference it with your shipping label to prove the items were packed and dispatched together.

Instant Evidence Retrieval for Disputes

Search by order number, tracking ID, or date to pull up the relevant packing record in seconds — no digging through folders or asking warehouse staff to recall events.

A Deterrent That Stops Fraud Before It Starts

When customers know every order is recorded and certified, the incentive to file a false claim disappears. Prevention is always cheaper than resolution.

How to Defeat False Non-Receipt Claims With PackProof

1

Record the Packing Process

At the packing station, start a recording that captures each item being placed into the parcel. The camera shows the product, quantity, and condition before the box is closed.

2

Seal the Evidence With a Cryptographic Hash

PackProof automatically generates a SHA-512 hash the moment recording ends. This seal guarantees the footage cannot be modified, replaced, or backdated.

3

Link Evidence to the Order and Tracking Number

Associate the sealed recording with the corresponding order ID and carrier tracking number. This creates a direct, searchable chain from purchase to parcel.

4

Retrieve and Submit When a Claim Is Filed

When a buyer disputes the order, pull up the certified evidence instantly. Submit the sealed video, hash certificate, and timestamp directly to your payment processor or marketplace.
