The purpose may be to obtain goods without paying, or to obtain unauthorized funds from an account. Transactions completed with credit cards seem to become more and more popular with the introduction of online shopping and banking. Correspondingly, the number of credit card frauds has also increased .Currently; data mining is a popular way to combat frauds because of its effectiveness. Data mining is a well-defined procedure that takes data as input and produces output in the forms of models or patterns. In other words, the task of data mining is to analyze a massive amount of data and to extract some usable information that we can interpret for future uses.
