# Check Fraud

## Request a fraud evaluation

<mark style="color:green;">`POST`</mark> `https://api.waldo.ai/check-fraud`

{% hint style="info" %}
All evaluation requests are asynchronous. \
Therefore, the response to the fraud check request will not be completed in real time.\
If you have set up the webhooks, your system will receive notifications automatically.\
Otherwise, your system can poll Waldo's API until the evaluation is completed.
{% endhint %}

**Request body**

| Name                                         | Type   | Description |
| -------------------------------------------- | ------ | ----------- |
| customerId<mark style="color:red;">\*</mark> | string | Customer ID |

**Response**

{% hint style="warning" %}
When requesting a fraud check, always verify the `evaluation` property; if its status is `initiated,` the `fraudScore` value is the last known fraud score, not of the current evaluation.
