A Record Mobile Shopping Season Is Coming, but Many Retailers May Not Be Ready

Appdome reports AI-driven mobile fraud surges up to 400% during Cyber Week, with 51% of Americans fearing AI threats to mobile app safety this holiday season.

  • Appdome warned that holiday shopping is when attackers strike hardest, citing findings that synthetic fraud and AI-driven scams cause app abandonment among U.S. consumers.
  • Using AI to automate scams, attackers reportedly increase fraud attempts during Cyber Week, with industry sources noting spikes of around 89.4%.
  • Survey data shows 63.7% of Americans fear synthetic fraud, 44.7% delete apps over identity theft, 51% see AI-powered threats as a risk, yet only 10.6% trust apps to stop them.
  • Stopping attacks inside apps is essential to protecting customers and revenue during peak shopping, pressuring banking, retail, fintech, travel and delivery apps to show visible defenses.
  • Appdome says its AI-Native XTM Platform and tools like Threat Resolution Center, Threat-Events framework, and ThreatScope Mobile XTM detect and preempt threats during holiday shopping, a peak attack period.
