Consequently, it is crucial and vital to build an efficient methodology to identify financial statement fraud in businesses. Usage of credit card are very frequent these days and due to loopholes in the system fraud cases in credit card is rising which causes huge financial losses. In this paper the focus is on credit card fraud detection in real world with the help of machine learning. In this case Logistic Regression, Decision tree method and SVM (support vector machine) are applied on credit card fraud detection for knowledge discovery among the data. The applied methods can detect the fraudulent transactions with highest accuracy. However, the results are predicted using evaluation metrics such as accuracy, error rate, specificity, sensitivity, and ROC curves are calculated to assess each model's performance. Hence, the predicted results suggested that logistic regression is the most accurate model for prediction of fraud datasets in financial sustainability.
