Prompt Details
This prompt is designed to be dynamic and adaptable for use across various AI platforms, focusing on social welfare fraud detection within public sector applications. It aims to identify potential fraudulent activities by analyzing applicant data and flagging suspicious patterns. The prompt can be adjusted based on the specific data available and the desired level of detail in the analysis.
**Prompt Structure:**
“`
Analyze the provided applicant data for potential fraud within the [Specific Public Assistance Program Name, e.g., SNAP, TANF, Medicaid] program. Consider the following factors and return a structured analysis including a fraud risk score (0-10, where 10 indicates the highest risk), supporting evidence, and recommended next steps.
**Data Input:** (Provide the data in a structured format, e.g., JSON, CSV, or XML. Ensure data consistency and clearly label each field.)
“`json
{
“applicant_id”: “unique_id”,
“name”: “applicant_name”,
“dob”: “date_of_birth”,
“address”: “applicant_address”,
“phone”: “applicant_phone_number”,
“email”: “applicant_email”,
“ssn”: “social_security_number”, // Handle with appropriate security measures
“income”: “applicant_income”,
“employment_status”: “employment_status”,
“household_size”: “number_of_household_members”,
“benefits_requested”: “types_and_amounts_of_benefits_requested”,
“assets”: “applicant_assets”,
“bank_account_details”: “bank_account_information”, // Handle with appropriate security measures
“ip_address”: “applicant_ip_address”,
“application_timestamp”: “date_and_time_of_application”,
// Add other relevant data fields as needed
}
“`
**Analysis Focus:**
1. **Identity Verification:** Check for inconsistencies or anomalies in personal information, such as mismatched names, addresses, or social security numbers. Compare the provided information against existing databases and identify potential identity theft or synthetic identities.
2. **Income and Asset Discrepancies:** Analyze the reported income and assets against declared needs and eligibility criteria. Flag discrepancies, unusually high or low values, or inconsistencies across multiple applications.
3. **Address and Contact Information Analysis:** Identify multiple applicants sharing the same address, phone number, or email address, which might indicate potential collusion or fraudulent applications. Verify the validity of the provided address and phone number.
4. **Employment Verification:** Cross-reference the reported employment status and income with employer databases or other reliable sources to confirm accuracy.
5. **Benefit History:** Analyze the applicant’s history of receiving benefits across different programs. Look for patterns of overlapping benefits, frequent program switching, or suspicious application timelines.
6. **Network Analysis:** If data allows, analyze connections between applicants, including family relationships, shared addresses, or financial transactions. Identify potential networks of fraudulent activity.
7. **Device and Location Analysis:** Examine IP addresses, device fingerprints, and geolocation data for anomalies or inconsistencies that may suggest multiple applications originating from the same source or suspicious locations.
8. **Textual Analysis:** (If applicable) Analyze free-text fields, such as application narratives or supporting documentation, for inconsistencies, unusual language patterns, or indicators of fraudulent intent.
9. **Anomaly Detection:** Employ statistical analysis and machine learning techniques to identify outliers and unusual patterns in the data that might indicate fraud.
**Output Format:**
“`json
{
“fraud_risk_score”: “score_0_to_10”,
“supporting_evidence”: [
{“factor”: “inconsistent_address”, “details”: “Address does not match official records”},
{“factor”: “multiple_applications_same_ip”, “details”: “Three applications submitted from the same IP address in a short timeframe”}
// … other evidence
],
“recommended_next_steps”: [
“Verify identity with additional documentation”,
“Conduct field investigation”,
“Contact applicant for further information”
// … other recommendations
]
