Is this crazy or what? My take away is that the factors the city of Amsterdam is using to predict fraud are probably not actually predictors. For example if you use the last digit of someones phone number as a fraud predictor, you might discover there is a bias against low numbers. So you adjust your model to make it less likely that low numbers generate investigations. It is unlikely that your model will be any more fair after your adjustment.

One has to wonder if the study is more valid a predictor of the implementers' biases than that of the subjects.
