## Services

![FraudRecord and IPQualityScore — registration links and API keys](https://doc.puq.info/uploads/images/gallery/2026-07/embedded-image-ilsyj0ik.png)

- **FraudRecord** ([register free](https://fraudrecord.com/register)) — a shared database of abuse reports from hosting providers. Client data is **hashed locally** before it is sent, so no plain-text personal data leaves your server. Create a reporter profile to get an API key.
- **IPQualityScore** ([create account](https://www.ipqualityscore.com/create-account)) — scores the client's IP for proxy/VPN/fraud risk and checks whether the email address appears in leaked databases. The free plan includes monthly lookup credits.

## Master toggle and triggers

| Setting | Description |
| --- | --- |
| Fraud check enabled | Master toggle; at least one service with an API key must be enabled. |
| Fraud check on registration / profile update / order checkout | The same trigger events as the sanctions checks, controlled separately. With the [check queue](07-config-check-triggers.md) enabled for triggers, fraud checks are queued too. |

## Where you see the results

The [client profile panel](03-client-profile-panel.md) shows `Fraudrecord: 0-0-0 | Fraud IP: 0% | Fraud Email: NO` badges (red = findings), a **Fraud Check Now** button, and **Send Report** — a form (fraud type, level 1–10, free text) that submits an abuse report to FraudRecord and/or IPQualityScore. Raw API responses are available in the **View All Data** modal.
