Abstract: The rapid expansion of digital payment systems has significantly increased the prevalence and sophistication of credit card fraud, posing serious financial risks to consumers and financial institutions. Traditional rule-based fraud detection systems struggle to adapt to evolving fraud patterns and large-scale transaction data. To address these challenges, this study presents a comprehensive comparative analysis of three supervised machine learning models—Logistic Regression, Decision Tree, and Random Forest—for detecting and predicting fraudulent credit card transactions using a highly imbalanced dataset. Data preprocessing techniques, including feature scaling and undersampling, are employed to mitigate bias toward the majority class. Model performance is evaluated using accuracy, precision, recall, F1-score, specificity, and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). Experimental results demonstrate that the Random Forest model outperforms the other classifiers, achieving an accuracy of 96% and an AUC of 98.9%. Additionally, demographic and temporal analyses reveal that cardholders above 60 years are more vulnerable to fraud, with a higher frequency of fraudulent transactions occurring between 22:00 and 04:00 GMT. The findings highlight the effectiveness of ensemble-based learning approaches and provide practical insights for enhancing fraud detection systems in the financial sector.
