According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "Product delivery and return fraud is a growing issue in e-commerce, where products are replaced, tampered with, or returned with missing components. These incidents create disputes between customers and sellers and result in financial loss, mistrust, and poor customer experience. Most current delivery and return processes do not maintain reliable visual proof of the product across its lifecycle. There is no proper way to confirm what was packed, what was actually delivered to the customer, and what was later returned. Manual verification is time-consuming, prone to human error, and often fails to clearly identify where fraud or tampering occurred. To address this problem, this project introduces a visual verification framework that continuously records and analyzes three key checkpoints in the product lifecycle: the packing video, the delivery video, and the return video. Each video acts as digital proof of the product's condition, contents, and authenticity at different stages of the logistics process. The system applies Y0L0v9 to detect and verify all visible items such as the main product and its accessories at each stage."
