A real-world example

Among accounts with escalating deposits to crypto exchanges over 90 days, which will make another large deposit in the next 14 days?

$3.6B US losses in 2023. Victims groomed on dating apps are directed to fake crypto platforms. Signature: escalating deposits over weeks. Chen Zhi / Prince Group ($12B seized). A 15-minute welfare call costs $25; the average victim loses $150K. Banks have a duty-of-care obligation.

How KumoRFM solves this

Graph-powered fraud intelligence

Kumo’s backward window identifies the escalation pattern: A001 deposited $2K (Nov), $5K (Dec), $15K (Jan) — all to crypto exchanges. The model predicts another $5K+ deposit within 14 days with 87% probability. The relational graph reveals the pattern: increasing amounts, decreasing time between deposits, all flowing to the same exchange category.
