Which of the following is NOT a Radar risk category?

• A. Verified payments
• B. Elevated risk payments
• C. Normal risk payments
• D. Unknown risk payments

Answer: (A)

Radar risk categories describe how likely a payment is to be fraudulent, not whether verification steps were completed. Normal risk payments indicate standard, expected risk; elevated risk payments are flagged as higher risk and may be blocked or challenged; unknown risk payments appear when there isn’t enough data to judge risk. Verified payments, on the other hand, refers to payments that have passed verification checks, which is about the success of verification rather than the assessed fraud risk. Since risk categories are about risk level, while verified status relates to verification results, verified payments aren’t a Radar risk category.
