Intelligent systems for detecting SIM swap in mobile devices, wherein if a user requests access to an account via a mobile device, a mobile device application (MDA) sends the request along with mobile device ID and IMSI. If all information received from the MDA matches information stored in memory, the user can access the account. If the mobile device ID or IMSI received from the MDA do not match the mobile device ID or IMSI stored in memory, a social intelligence module compares a mobile device user profile with a profile for a user associated with the account ID. If the mobile device user profile matches or is within a confidence level of the profile for the user associated with the account ID, the user can access the account. Otherwise, additional methods to validate the user may be implemented to prevent possible fraudsters from accessing the account.
