How were the anti-fraud rules implemented at the service level?

Anti-fraud rules at the service level are usually implemented through a set of checks and filters that analyze incoming requests and transactions in real time. In Golang, this can be implemented using middleware that intercepts requests and applies rules, for example:
- Checking request frequency from a single IP or account (rate limiting)
- Analyzing anomalies in user behavior (e.g., sudden changes in purchase patterns)
- Validating data for suspicious values
- Using blacklists and whitelists
An example of simplified middleware for request frequency checking:
func AntiFraudMiddleware(next http.Handler) http.Handler {
return http.HandlerFunc(func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
userID := r.Header.Get("X-User-ID")
if isSuspicious(userID) {
http.Error(w, "Request blocked by anti-fraud rules", http.StatusForbidden)
return
}
next.ServeHTTP(w, r)
})
}
func isSuspicious(userID string) bool {
// Logic for checking, e.g., request frequency
return false
}
Thus, anti-fraud rules are integrated into the service as part of request processing, allowing for prompt blocking of suspicious activities.
