It's impossible to tell, with certainty, if a credit card is being used by its rightful owner or someone else. That's not something anyone anywhere in the payment processing industry guarantees. In terms of who can do the best at predicting the likelihood a transaction is fraudulent or not, it's definitely the merchant/website, not their processor. He has much more information available to him (IP address, github account, etc) than Balanced has.
