SARs are for, like, attempted funding of terrorists. fraudy cc attempts don't scratch the surface



Um, no. Banks file a lot of those. If it’s me using my dads credit card number then sure, not a SAR. But most of that activity is systematic: either backed by organized crime or a semi-professional fraudster. Those most definitely would get a SAR

Sorry that was probably an overly snarky response on my part. Stripes product is actually aimed at merchants so two steps removed anyway.
