together against profile fraud
Developers

Anatoa offer plug-ins for the most common scripts, but you can also access our WebServices API directly from your custom developed site. There are 6 methods available. They all operate on three main data entities, which are Profile, Image and Message. There is a Check and a Report method for each data entity.

Check methods are used to retrieve a "fraud probability score" for a given Profile, Picture or Message. We recommend a threshold value of 6.0 for flagging a profile as suspected fraudulent. Report methods are used when you have yourself detected that one of your members is a scammer.

Our WSDL can be found at this URL: http://ws.anatoa.com/ws/?wsdl. It can only be accessed once you have set up a (free) account and registered your website.
