# Detect Tor Exit Nodes and Datacenter IPs — Fraud Check

**Use case:** 

Flags risky IPs for signup and payment fraud checks: Tor exit node (official Tor Project list), datacenter or cloud network (AWS, Google Cloud, Azure, Cloudflare and more, with the provider), country and a 0-100 risk score with reasons. Example: a Tor relay and public cloud IPs. Paste your own IPs or logs into text, set allowedCountries for geo-fencing, or turn on onlyFlagged.

## Input

```json
{
  "ips": [
    "185.220.101.1",
    "3.5.140.2",
    "104.16.132.229",
    "20.112.52.29",
    "8.8.8.8"
  ],
  "resolveHostnames": true,
  "maxItems": 1000,
  "dedupe": true,
  "geoProvider": "auto",
  "includeAsn": true,
  "includeReverseDns": true,
  "includeHostingCheck": true,
  "includeTorCheck": true,
  "includeRdap": false,
  "onlyFlagged": false,
  "minRiskScore": 0,
  "skipBogons": false
}
```

## Output

```json
{
  "ip": {
    "label": "IP",
    "format": "string"
  },
  "riskScore": {
    "label": "Risk score",
    "format": "integer"

    "label": "Risk level",
    "format": "string"
  },
  "riskReasons": {
    "label": "Risk reasons",
    "format": "array"
  },
  "countryCode": {
    "label": "Country code",

    "format": "boolean"
  },
  "isTorExit": {
    "label": "Tor exit",
    "format": "boolean"
  },
  "isHosting": {
    "label": "Hosting / datacenter",
    "format": "boolean"

## How it works

### 1. Sign up on Apify or log in

The IP Intelligence — Geolocation, ASN, Hosting, Tor, Abuse Contact Actor is ready to run with the inputs already set for "Detect Tor Exit Nodes and Datacenter IPs — Fraud Check". [Sign up or log in](https://console.apify.com/create-task-from-example/4OHDxbL9uwoqJRIsj) and you'll land in Apify Console with a copy of this exact task.

### 2. Start the "Detect Tor Exit Nodes and Datacenter IPs — Fraud Check" task

The IP Intelligence — Geolocation, ASN, Hosting, Tor, Abuse Contact Actor will start running based on the input automatically. You can also change all the input fields, like IP addresses or hostnames, resolve hostnames, and more, to match your specific use case.

### 3. Receive the "Detect Tor Exit Nodes and Datacenter IPs — Fraud Check" output

Monitor the progress in real time. You will be notified as soon as your dataset is complete and ready for review. Each result includes data such as IP, risk score, risk level, and more.

### 4. Integrate into your workflow

The final output is delivered in JSON, CSV, or Excel format, ready to be plugged into your workflow. You can also [run the "Detect Tor Exit Nodes and Datacenter IPs — Fraud Check" task via API](https://apify.com/yadroo/ip-intel.md).

## About this Actor

This example demonstrates how to use [IP Intelligence — Geolocation, ASN, Hosting, Tor, Abuse Contact](https://apify.com/yadroo/ip-intel.md) with a specific input configuration. Visit the [Actor detail page](https://apify.com/yadroo/ip-intel.md) to learn more, explore other use cases, and run it yourself.


## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/yadroo/ip-intel.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
