A standalone notification system, including a notification server which generates electronic messages for alerting customers of potentially fraudulent activity on one or more of their financial accounts. Alternatively, or in addition thereto, the notification system may be used to forward transaction code(s) to customers for verification of a request for high risk transaction(s) with respect to a customer's financial account. The transaction code is generated in response to a high risk transaction request and sent to through an identified customer notification means, e.g., e-mail, short message service (“SMS”), facsimile, mobile phone, telephone, etc. The customer must enter the transaction code within a predetermined amount of time in order to verify the high-risk transaction request.

1. An at least partially server-implemented method for confirming a customer request for a transaction comprising: receiving, using a server, a high-risk transaction request associated with a customer;determining, using the server, the status of the customer as being either enrolled in a notification system or not enrolled in a notification system;if it is determined that the customer is enrolled in the notification system, ascertaining the customer's preferred method of notification, formulating an alert message including a transaction code and sending the alert message to the customer via the preferred method of notification; andif it is determined that the customer is not enrolled in the notification system, determining at least one method of notifying the customer, formulating an alert message including the transaction code and sending the alert message to the customer via the at least one identified method of notification; andrequesting, using the server, entrance of the transaction code within a predetermined period of time in order to verify that the high-risk transaction request was made by the customer. 2. The at least partially server-implemented method of claim 1, further comprising: determining the at least one method of notifying the customer based on customer data received at the notification system or based on information requested at the time of the high risk transaction request. 3.
