Fraud reporting flow
Overview
The fraud reporting flow is used to report potential fraud to Google. This
flow is used to update Google's internal risk engine and does not initiate any
money movement. If money movement is initiated then a dispute should be started
using the dispute flow. A dispute does not necessarily imply
fraud and fraud does not necessarily accompany a dispute.
The Payment Integrator can inform Google of the potential fraud for a
transaction by calling into the
fraudNotification
method.
