Request Demo Digital ID validation How we verify IDs remotely Format checksEaster egg checksCrossmatchingID design checks AI-driven barcode analysis The 2D barcode (PDF417) of an ID contains all the same data as the front of the ID, and each state formats their data slightly differently. We know the standard formats used in each jurisdiction and so can tell instantly if the data does not match an expected entry. Every time an ID is validated remotely, our software performs more than 100 simultaneous 2D barcode security checks, capable of catching roughly 50% of fake IDs. Jurisdictional specific tell checks Most states embed intentional quirks and security features into their barcode - for example the 4th number of the ID number is always even, or they use a different 3-letter sequence for eye color. Our AI looks for these easter eggs with every scan during the remote ID validation process. Front / back crossmatch Our remote ID validation compares the data stored inside the 2D barcode to the plaintext data on the front of the ID, read and ingested using OCR. Low quality fake IDs often simply remove and change the identity data on the front of the ID. This means that the barcode contains data of a different individual. Front / back crossmatching will identify the discrepancy between the two datasets, weeding out poor quality or homemade fake IDs.

Request demo Preventing deepfakes Biometric anti-spoofing prevention Photo attacksReplay attacksAdvanced liveness3D mask attacks Preventing use of printed photos to fool facial recognition One of the most common ways fraudsters attempt to fool facial recognition or face matching technology is by using a printed photo of the face on the ID. This attempts to “trick” the facial recognition into believing the ID holder is actually present, and verifying the identity of the criminal. With social media and the ubiquity of the selfie, it is very easy for criminals to access multiple, high-resolution photos of most individuals to use for this purpose. Our anti-spoofing prevents against photo attacks by creating a 3D mesh model that can instantly detect if the image is printed or flat. Additionally, we offer lockdown capabilities that ensure live image capture with no ability to upload a photo during the facial recognition process. Prevent video-in-video replay attacks Slightly more sophisticated than photo attacks are video attacks, which use a video of an individual to try and emulate the individual in the ID photo. These videos can be ripped from social media sites, employment websites, or created via deepfake. Video and replay attacks are dangerous, but our anti-spoofing technology can detect them by looking for forensic evidence that the individual is not live and that the camera is picking up details from a screen.

Trump's second presidential term could be a watershed moment in the identity verification industry. Federal adoption, state-level policy expansion, and a landmark Supreme Court ruling all have the potential to make a major impact on identity verification operations. Additionally, the private sector is rapidly addressing their own sea of changes in identity verification, driven by the proliferation of digital IDs and mobile drivers licenses. As government pressure converges with private sector demand and rising incidence of ID fraud, we're tracking some of the top trends which we believe will leave a lasting impact on the landscape and drive the major changes in process, performance, and consumer sentiment through 2026 and beyond. US Supreme Court upholds states' right to force age verification online On June 27, 2025, the Supreme Court upheld Texas’s age verification law in a 6–3 decision, ruling it survives intermediate scrutiny and merely imposes an incidental burden on adult speech. Texas HB 1181 requires certain commercial websites publishing sexually explicit content to verify that visitors are at least 18 years old. The ruling ensures that similar age-verification mandates across states remain constitutionally viable. This decision effectively opens the floodgates for state-level identity verification laws, especially those aimed at restricting access to online content, age-gated services, or certain types of transactions. Since 2022, more than a dozen states have passed similar laws. While additional legal challenges are likely, this ruling provides a strong precedent. Strengthened identity proofing in Federal benefits Starting March 2025, the Social Security Administration (SSA) tightened... --- > Verifying Australian IDs is an essential fraud prevention step, but can be complex with each state and territory issuing different licenses. - Published: 2025-07-03 - Modified: 2025-07-08 - URL: https://idscan.net/blog/how-to-verify-australian-drivers-licenses/ - Categories: Driver's License & IDs, How To Guides, ID Fraud Prevention Verifying Australian IDs is an essential fraud prevention step, but can be complex with each state and territory issuing different licenses. Verifying an Australian driver’s license (driver licence) is an essential step for businesses that need to confirm identity for onboarding customers, preventing ID fraud, or ensuring regulatory compliance. But with each Australian state or territory issuing different licenses, understanding how to properly authenticate these IDs can be complex. Physical Australian license features & data Each Australian state and territory issues its own design. While layouts and security features vary slightly, all Australian licenses contain: Full name Date of birth Photo Address License number Expiry date Issuing state or territory A unique licence card number Australian drivers license security features Most Australian licenses contain additional security features that aren't always obvious upon visual inspection. Because layouts vary, it is essential to use ID authentication software that recognizes the templates for each jurisdiction. Many licenses contain security features, such as: Holographic elements Microprint security text UV features Ghost images (faded secondary photos) Windowpane elements Authentication hardware, combined with ID verification software, is capable of ensuring all of the correct security features are present and correct for the template. Australian driver license barcodes Unlike US government-issued IDs, Australian IDs don't have PDF417 barcodes. This can make verification more difficult, as some ID scanning tools rely heavily on reading PDF417 barcodes for age and expiration status verification and document verification. PDF417 barcodes are the standard data storage symbology for US IDs because they are capable of containing all of the information printed on the front of the ID, as well as specific formatting that... --- > In today’s increasingly digitized academic environments one of the lesser-known threats to campus safety is the emergence of ghost student IDs - Published: 2025-07-02 - Modified: 2025-07-02 - URL: https://idscan.net/blog/ghost-student-ids-the-hidden-threat-to-campus-security/ - Categories: ID Fraud, ID Fraud Prevention, Identity Verification Technology - Tags: ID Fraud, ID Scanning Software, ID verification In today’s increasingly digitized academic environments one of the lesser-known threats to campus safety is the emergence of ghost student IDs In today’s increasingly digitized academic environments, the need for secure, accurate, and real-time identity verification has never been more important. One of the lesser-known yet growing threats to campus integrity and safety is the emergence of ghost student IDs. Ghost student IDs are fraudulent or illegitimate identity credentials used by individuals who are not actual students but attempt to access campus resources, facilities, or privileges. Whether driven by financial fraud, academic cheating, or even more serious security threats, ghost IDs represent a critical vulnerability in the education sector. What are Ghost Student IDs? A ghost student ID is a student identification card issued under false or manipulated information. These IDs are usually created for a few different scenarios: Fake students created during fraudulent admissions processes Fraudsters using stolen or purchased identities Former students wanting to retain access despite being unenrolled External individuals who gain unauthorized access to campus via counterfeit or duplicate IDs Ghost IDs can be either physical, much like a traditional driver’s license or ID card, or digital, like new mobile IDs (mDLs) with QR codes or NFC-based credentials. They are often created to exploit institutional benefits such as student discounts, housing, meal plans, Wi-Fi, or even to gain access to campus buildings like labs, gyms, or libraries. Why are Ghost Student IDs a growing concern? Security risks and financial fraud rank among the top concerns when institutions encounter a ghost student ID. Allowing unauthorized individuals access to campus buildings can pose serious safety threats, especially in K–12,... --- - Published: 2025-07-02 - Modified: 2025-07-02 - URL: https://idscan.net/blog/how-veriscan-can-help-prevent-credit-card-chargebacks/ - Categories: Artificial Intelligence, Bars & Nightclubs, Cannabis, Finance & Banking, Hospitality, ID Fraud, Retail - Tags: cannabis, ID Scanning, ID Scanning Software Chargebacks are among the most frustrating & costly issues faced by retailers. Fortunately, ID verification offers a powerful line of defense. Credit card chargebacks are one of the most frustrating and costly issues faced by retailers, bars, dispensaries, and other merchants involved in customer transactions. Whether it's a fraudulent transaction, a customer disputing a legitimate purchase, or misuse of a payment method, chargebacks not only cost businesses money, they also jeopardize their merchant processing status. Fortunately, identity verification tools, like VeriScan, offer a powerful line of defense. By incorporating ID scanning into your current workflow, especially at the point of sale, you can collect critical data that helps reduce chargeback risk and provide the documentation needed to dispute them successfully. What is a credit card chargeback? A chargeback occurs when a credit card issuer forcibly reverses a transaction at the request of the cardholder. While intended as a consumer protection mechanism against fraud, chargebacks are often misused by fraudsters themselves. Merchants are then left to prove the transaction was valid, often with limited evidence. Why credit card chargeback protection matters Beyond the financial toll of credit card chargebacks—lost revenue, restocking costs, and chargeback fees—businesses that accumulate too many disputes may face increased processing fees or even lose their ability to accept credit cards. VeriScan offers a preventive and defensible solution that helps maintain your processing privileges and protect your bottom line. How can ID Scanning fight credit card chargeback disputes? By scanning a government-issued ID at the point of sale, merchants can collect and store a digital record of who was present during the transaction, as well as capture images of... --- > After numerous deadline extensions, REAL IDs are now mandatory to gain access to all federal buildings and nuclear facilities. - Published: 2025-06-26 - Modified: 2025-06-26 - URL: https://idscan.net/blog/how-federal-buildings-can-comply-with-real-id-act-requirements/ - Categories: Compliance, Driver's License & IDs, Laws by State - Tags: Compliance, Federal Laws, Real ID After numerous deadline extensions, REAL IDs are now mandatory to gain access to all federal buildings and nuclear facilities. Stay compliant with the REAL ID Act by locking down access to federal buildings to REAL ID holders Passed by Congress in 2005 in response to the September 11th terrorist attacks, the REAL ID Act established new federal standards for driver’s licenses and identification cards in a dual effort to enhance security and prevent identity fraud. The Act sets minimum requirements for ID verification, documentation, and security features, affecting how Americans travel, access federal facilities, and enter nuclear power plants. In May, the law (finally) officially went into effect. After numerous deadline extensions, REAL IDs are now mandatory per the Department of Homeland Security for anyone flying on an airplane. But getting less publicity is that REAL IDs are now required to gain access to all federal buildings and nuclear facilities. The Department of Homeland Security Guidelines state: Beginning May 7, 2025, all adults 18 and older will need to present REAL ID-compliant state-issued identification or other acceptable ID to enter most federal facilities. Under the direction of building owners, the Federal Protective Service will ensure that all entrants meet the necessary entry requirements. Upon arrival, individuals may be asked to present a REAL ID-compliant driver’s license, a passport, or other acceptable ID. This change is designed to enhance security while establishing consistent identification standards across federal facilities. This law applies to all federal agencies as well as military bases.   This poses the question - how can federal buildings best comply with REAL ID requirements?

Learn why these IDs fail verification and how to avoid issues. - Published: 2025-06-25 - Modified: 2025-06-25 - URL: https://idscan.net/blog/why-same-day-minnesota-ids-are-failing-verification/ - Categories: Uncategorized Some same-day Minnesota IDs are flagged as fake due to subtle design differences. Learn why these IDs fail verification and how to avoid issues. Minnesota Same-Day ID holders are reporting their legitimate IDs flagged as fake by ID checkers and ID verification software. Minnesota’s same-day driver’s licenses and ID cards, issued as part of a pilot program at two Driver and Vehicle Services (DVS) locations, have raised red flags during identity verification, both to the human eye and under document authentication software. While these IDs are legitimate and carry the same barcode data as centrally issued cards, visual differences in the card design are causing confusion, and in some cases, serious issues for cardholders. The Issue: Visual mismatches, not data errors The core of the problem lies not in the data stored in the barcode (which should verify correctly) but in how the physical card appears to both scanners and the naked eye. Document authentication systems are trained to detect fraudulent IDs by comparing the scanned document to known templates. Since the same-day IDs’ design doesn't match the expected Minnesota template, they are sometimes triggering the sensitive software to flag the document as suspicious. Additionally, bouncers or other professionals who are familiar with the standard Minnesota drivers license may notice the discrepancies and assume the ID is fake.

One type that stands out for its added complexity and security measures is the interlocking ID. When it comes to ID verification and security, not all driver’s licenses are created equal. One type that stands out for its added complexity and security measures is the Ignition Interlock ID. Understanding what these are, how they work, and how to flag them during a scan is crucial for professionals in law enforcement, retail, hospitality, and any sector where ID validation is routine. What are Interlock IDs? Interlocking driver’s licenses refer to a specialized format that indicates when a driver must perform a breathalyzer test prior to driving a vehicle. The visual elements and encoded data (such as the barcode or magnetic stripe) are designed to "interlock" across jurisdictions or systems. These licenses often appear very similar between states, making them easier to validate consistently across borders. This is especially important for insurance providers, car rental facilities, logistics companies, etc. Key Security Features Like most modern IDs, interlocking drivers licenses include several built-in security features that are standardized by the ICAO: Holograms and ghost images Microprinting and UV ink Barcodes and magnetic stripes - Encoded with data that must match the printed information. Star symbol for newer REAL IDs Tactile text or raised lettering These elements not only prevent fraud but also allow scanning systems to alert businesses when extra precautions may need to be taken.   How to Flag Interlock Licenses During a Scan Interlock IDs may employ the use of additional security features, but that doesn’t prevent them from being scannable.

On Sunday, June 22nd, Texas SB 650 passed into law without governor signature. ID verification for alcohol sales will be required beginning 9/1/2025, though Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission expects to allow a 2-year grace period to comply with the new law. In a historic move to inhibit underage alcohol consumption, Texas has unanimously passed SB 650, known as the "Deshawn Jagwan Act. " This legislation mandates the use of electronic ID scanners at retail points of sale for alcoholic beverages, aiming to enhance age verification processes and prevent minors from purchasing alcohol. The tragic catalyst The motivation for this legislation stems from the untimely death of 18-year-old Deshawn Jagwan in April 2022. Deshawn purchased alcohol without being asked for identification and subsequently died in a car accident. His mother channeled her grief into advocacy, spending three years pushing for stricter alcohol sales regulations. Her efforts culminated in the passage of Texas SB 650. What does Texas SB 650 mean? Texas SB 650 introduces several key provisions to strengthen age verification in alcohol sales: Mandatory electronic ID scanning Retailers are required to access electronically readable information on a customer's driver's license, commercial driver's license, or identification certificate to verify age before completing an alcohol sale. Scope of application The law applies to all retail sales of alcoholic beverages, excluding sales on the premises of package store permit holders. Implementation timeline The Deshawn Jagwan Act takes effect on September 1, 2025. However, the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission (TABC) is not authorized to... --- > EU hotel ID scanning laws can be a complex thing to navigate. With both GDPR and local laws, compliance can be tricky for ID scanning. - Published: 2025-05-16 - Modified: 2025-05-16 - URL: https://idscan.net/blog/navigating-eu-hotel-id-scanning-laws-gdpr-and-the-future-of-digital-identity/ - Categories: Compliance, Hospitality - Tags: ID Scanning EU hotel ID scanning laws can be a complex thing to navigate. With both GDPR and local laws, compliance can be tricky for ID scanning. In the European Union, the practice of hotels scanning guests' identification documents such as passports, driver's licenses, or ID cards during check-in is commonplace. While this process aids in verifying identities and streamlining operations, it also raises significant concerns regarding data privacy and compliance with regulations like the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Moreover, the forthcoming eIDAS 2. 0 regulation introduces a new paradigm with the European Digital Identity Wallet (EUDI Wallet), poised to transform how personal data is handled in the hospitality sector. Understanding the legal landscape of the GDPR The GDPR, effective since May 2018, mandates stringent guidelines on how personal data should be collected, processed, and stored. For hotels, this means: Lawful basis for data processing: Hotels must have a legitimate reason for collecting personal data, such as fulfilling a contract (e. g. , room reservation) or complying with legal obligations (e. g. , reporting to local authorities). Data minimization: Only data necessary for the specified purpose should be collected. Scanning entire ID documents may capture more information than required, potentially breaching this principle. Transparency and consent: Guests should be informed about what data is collected, why it's collected, how it will be used, and how long it will be retained. Explicit consent is required for processing sensitive data or for purposes beyond the original intent. Data subject rights: Guests have rights to access their data, request corrections, object to processing, and request deletion under certain circumstances. Non-compliance of GDPR regulations can result in substantial fines and... --- > In an increasingly digital and global economy, global ID verification has become a cornerstone of fraud reduction and compliance operations. - Published: 2025-05-15 - Modified: 2025-05-16 - URL: https://idscan.net/blog/best-practices-for-global-id-verification/ - Categories: Identity Verification Technology - Tags: ID Scanning, ID verification, mobile ID scanning In an increasingly digital and global economy, global ID verification has become a cornerstone of fraud reduction and compliance operations. In an increasingly digital and global economy, global ID verification has become a cornerstone of fraud reduction and compliance operations. Whether onboarding new customers, preventing fraud, or complying with regulations like KYC (Know Your Customer) and AML (Anti-Money Laundering), businesses around the world are under pressure to verify identities quickly, securely, and at scale. Yet, global ID verification is no small feat. With over 190 countries, thousands of document types, and a wide range of languages, standards, and regulatory expectations, implementing a robust global identity verification system is key.   In this blog, we explore the key principles and best practices to ensure effective, compliant, and user-friendly global identity verification. Understand the compliance landscape Before deploying any ID verification solution, it’s crucial to understand the regulatory requirements in the jurisdictions where your business operates. Regulations such as: GDPR (Europe) CCPA (California) FINTRAC (Canada) FATF recommendations (global) eIDAS (EU digital identity) KYC/AML requirements (vary by region) Each region may have specific mandates regarding data storage, consent, biometric use, and verification standards. Some countries (like Germany) may have strict rules around the storage of identity documents, while others may require in-person verification for certain services. Choose a scalable, document-agnostic solution With passports, national IDs, driver’s licenses, and other official documents varying widely from country to country, it’s critical that your identity verification solution supports a broad range of ID types and formats. Opt for providers that support machine-readable zones (MRZ), optical character recognition (OCR), barcode scanning, and NFC chip reading where available.... --- > Learn which countries include QR codes on their IDs and how this technology enhances identity verification, security, and data access. - Published: 2025-05-14 - Modified: 2025-05-14 - URL: https://idscan.net/blog/which-countries-have-qr-codes-on-their-ids/ - Categories: Industry News, Uncategorized Learn which countries include QR codes on their IDs and how this technology enhances identity verification, security, and data access. Why do some IDs have QR codes? QR codes on IDs serve multiple purposes, primarily centered around enhancing security and enabling digital identity verification. These QR codes can store additional information, such as biometrics or unique identifiers, that can be scanned and verified by authorized systems. They also help in online identity verification and authentication, making it easier to use online services. Which countries have QR codes on their IDs? Many countries have embraced QR codes to modernize their identification systems. Some examples include: Myanmar Driver’s licenses in Myanmar feature a QR code on the back that links to an official webpage displaying the holder’s personal details, including their photo—allowing authorities to verify authenticity on the spot. Chile Chilean ID cards include personal data like the RUN (Rol Único Nacional), date of birth, and document number in a QR code. Inspectors use this to cross-check details via a government portal. Denmark The Danish youth card, or legitimationskort, is issued by municipalities and often includes a QR code for real-time validation, in addition to other security features like holograms. India India’s national ID (Aadhaar) uses a secure QR code that encodes demographic information such as name, address, and mobile number. This data can be verified and is backed by a digital signature from UIDAI (Unique Identification Authority of India). In addition, the Indian Permanent Account Number (PAN) card is a mandatory document for Indian citizens who pay taxes, often used for opening bank accounts or paying large bills. These documents a... --- > REAL IDs intend to strengthen national security, but many are questioning if they will deliver the level of security intended. - Published: 2025-05-08 - Modified: 2025-05-08 - URL: https://idscan.net/blog/are-real-ids-really-harder-to-fake/ - Categories: ID Fraud When the REAL ID Act of 2005 was introduced, it promised to strengthen national security, but with an enforcement deadline 20 years later, many are questioning if REAL IDs deliver the level of security intended. When the REAL ID Act of 2005 was introduced, it promised to strengthen national security by setting higher standards for state-issued IDs, especially when it came to air travel, access to federal buildings, and more. Since then, the roll-out of the REAL ID program has faced delays, but with the impending enforcement deadline, many are questioning if REAL IDs deliver the level of security intended. Are REAL IDs really more secure? One of the primary selling points of the REAL ID is its increased security. The process for obtaining a REAL ID is certainly more rigorous than for previous state-issued IDs. Applicants must provide a variety of documentation, including proof of full legal name, date of birth, Social Security number, and two proofs of address. Despite this, we have already seen fraudsters creating fake IDs with REAL ID markers, such as the gold star on the top right corner. While it is more difficult to obtain a REAL ID than a regular state-issued ID, businesses should be cautious about accepting REAL IDs without further verification. We analyzed about 170 million ID scans in 2024 to see if IDs purporting to be REAL-compliant documents were less likely to be fraudulent. Our data revealed that REAL IDs were 36. 1% more likely to be flagged as fraudulent. Why is the US switching to REAL IDs? The REAL ID Act was passed in response to the events of 9/11, with the goal of making IDs more secure to prevent identity theft, fraud, and... --- > Since 2022, lawmakers in 17 states and counting have passed or considered legislation to place age restrictions for social media sites. - Published: 2025-05-07 - Modified: 2025-05-07 - URL: https://idscan.net/blog/which-states-have-age-restrictions-for-social-media/ - Categories: Age Verification, Laws by State - Tags: Age Verification - States: Alabama, Arkansas, California, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Louisiana, Maine, Nevada, New York, Ohio, Rhode Island, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Washington Since 2022, lawmakers in 17 states and counting have passed or considered legislation to place age restrictions for social media sites. Since 2022, lawmakers have passed or considered legislation to place age restrictions on websites containing adult content. More recently, that focus has shifted to social media-specific sites. These laws are part of an effort to protect minors using the internet from exposure to potentially harmful content. However, there is concern about where the line is drawn in the balance of online privacy and the responsibility to keep children safe. The debate around this topic has quickly escalated, with Congress debating implementing age verification measures at a federal level and the U. S. Supreme Court considering challenging state laws.   States with legislation surrounding age verification for social media Alabama Status: Proposed Alabama House Bill 276 was first introduced to the House in February of 2025. As of April 2025, the bill is still pending House review. Arkansas Status: Blocked While initially passed in 2023, Arkansas Senate Bill 396 has since been blocked by a federal judge and deemed unconstitutional. The fate of the law will be determined once the NetChoice vs. Griffin lawsuit is resolved.

B. 142). This law is the first of its kind nationally and intends to force app stores (such as the Apple AppStore and Google Play) to verify their customer's ages. The law is the fourth major piece of legislation put forth by the state of Utah intended to protect kids online: SB152 requires age verification for social media SB287 requires age verification for access to adult content SB104 requires parental controls to come pre-installed on devices What is Utah S. B. 142? App store providers (of which the two largest are Apple and Google) must request and verify the age of users at the time of account creation using commercially reasonable methods or processes compliant with standards set by Utah's Division of Consumer Protection. If a user is identified as a minor, the app store must: Require the minor's account to be affiliated with a parent or guardian's account. Obtain verifiable parental consent before permitting the minor to download apps or make in-app purchases. Automatically enable filters that prevent the user from accessing apps meant for adults. Apple and Google have both come out against the law, which places the onus of all age verification and protection of minors on the managers of the app stores, instead of the individual applications. While Meta, X, and other applications are in favor, as the law does not require that they add in additional age verification measures and provides a "verify once"... --- > While brick-and-mortar businesses can verify mDLs today, the digital verification process is still a work in progress. - Published: 2025-03-19 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://idscan.net/blog/when-can-businesses-start-verifying-mobile-ids-for-online-transactions/ - Categories: Mobile Drivers' License (mdl) While brick-and-mortar businesses can verify mDLs today, the digital verification process is still a work in progress. 17 US states currently offer mobile drivers licenses (mDLs), with five more set to release in 2025, so it's no surprise that businesses are eager to know when they can start accepting and verifying these digital credentials for online transactions. mDLs are currently accepted by the TSA, law enforcement, and at polls for elections, in addition to bars, restaurants, and other businesses that verify age. While brick-and-mortar businesses can verify mDLs today, the digital verification process is still a work in progress. Why can businesses verify mDLs in person but not digitally? At first glance, you might think verifying an mDL online would be as easy as checking it in person, especially given the digital IDs are already on users’ smartphones. However, the issue lies in the fact that each state has the autonomy to develop its own mDL. This means that states can use proprietary apps, like Louisiana’s LA Wallet, or offer their mDLs directly through Apple Wallet or Google Wallet. With so many different platforms and formats in play, creating a unified system for digital verification is a major challenge. Right now, there are no universal standards for how mDLs should communicate with digital verification solutions. This lack of consistency makes it difficult to ensure that an online verification process is both secure and reliable. Currently, for in-person mDL verification, an API is used to request access to the user's digital wallet. The OPENID4VP specs provide the details on how to use the Digital Credentials API to ask... --- > AI-generated IDs are growing more sophisticated and accessible - can ID verification systems catch them before fraud occurs? - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-06-25 - URL: https://idscan.net/blog/can-ai-generated-fake-ids-be-caught/ - Categories: Artificial Intelligence, ID Fraud, ID Fraud Prevention AI-generated IDs are growing more sophisticated and accessible - can ID verification systems catch them before fraud occurs? What is an AI-generated ID? Unlike traditional counterfeit IDs, AI-generated IDs are image files that replicate the look of legitimate government-issued IDs. Because these are digital images instead of physical documents they are easier to distribute and less detectable through traditional verification methods. These fake IDs are frequently sold on the dark web for as little as $5, making them highly accessible to criminals. AI tools can generate both front and back images of IDs, including a photo. The photo may be one provided by the user, or it could come from services like thispersondoesnotexist, which creates completely new, fake faces. Additionally, these fake IDs often have realistic-looking backgrounds to make it look like the ID is sitting on a table, countertop, or blanket. One of the more concerning aspects of these AI-generated IDs is the service model behind them. Platforms like ProKYC provide full-service options for creating fake IDs, complete with images, videos, and the ability to bypass verification systems that use phone cameras or webcams. For less than $700 a year, cybercriminals can access these services, enabling them to generate fraudulent passports and even selfie videos for identity verification processes. These services have opened up a new avenue for ID fraud, making it more accessible than ever before. What are AI-generated fake IDs used for? AI-generated fake IDs are primarily used for synthetic identity fraud. Fraudsters can manipulate these IDs to commit a wide variety of illegal activities, from setting up financial accounts to engaging in scams. Some... --- - Published: 2025-03-13 - Modified: 2025-03-13 - URL: https://idscan.net/blog/id-fraud-and-the-economy/ - Categories: Artificial Intelligence, Finance & Banking, ID Fraud Prevention Every identity verification provider is reporting on it: identity fraud is on the rise. Increasingly accessible and sophisticated fraud tools, combined with the motivation of economic uncertainty, have made fraud more common and harder to detect. Businesses must take action to fight against this wave of fraud before they fall victim to the financial losses and reputational damages of fraud. What is ID fraud? There are many types of fraud, but fraudulent identity credentials are central to many types of modern fraud and theft. Fake physical IDs can be purchased online with a simple Google search, and most are high-quality fakes that cannot be detected by visual inspection. Additionally, fake ID images, and deepfake images and videos, can be generated on darkweb sites. While these images aren't helpful for in-person fraud, they can be used in digital identity verification processes that ingest and analyze ID images as part of their verification or onboarding process. Fraudulent IDs (whether physical or digital) give fraudsters the legitimacy to pose as someone else or create a synthetic identity, allowing them to commit crimes, steal money, gain access to government benefits, scam others, and enrich themselves. ID fraud is increasing due to economic uncertainty While fraud is always a reality, there is a strong correlation between economic recessions and rising fraud. The Association of Certified Fraud Examiners found a direct correlation between economic downswings and increased fraudulent activity. A study, done in 2009 and analyzing the impact of the 2008 housing crisis showed that 55%... --- > Obtaining proof of address is crucial for businesses to ensure regulatory compliance and safeguarding against fraud. - Published: 2025-03-12 - Modified: 2025-06-25 - URL: https://idscan.net/blog/how-to-obtain-proof-of-address/ - Categories: Compliance Obtaining proof of address is crucial for businesses to ensure regulatory compliance and safeguarding against fraud. From ensuring regulatory compliance to safeguarding against fraud, verifying a customer’s address is crucial for maintaining secure and compliant operations. What is proof of address and why is it necessary? Proof of address is a step in the verification process that confirms an individual’s current residential address. Address verification has been a fundamental business practice, but with rising fraud, it has become more essential for businesses to adopt efficient, reliable, and secure methods. Proof of address is commonly required during eKYC processes, such as opening bank accounts or applying for loans in an effort to prevent fraud or money laundering. With rising rates of identity theft, address verification is a crucial step in a layered fraud-prevention approach. Verifying the individual's address helps businesses establish a layer of trust with the customer during the KYC process. Obtaining proof of address also allows businesses to communicate effectively with customers or users, ensuring important documents. bills, or legal notices that are sent through the mail are received. The traditional approach to proof of address Historically, the process of verifying proof of address has involved the manual review of documents, such as utility bills, bank statements, or government-issued letters. These documents serve as physical evidence of a person’s residence. However, this method comes with several limitations. Many documents used to show proof of address are not regulated or secure, making it nearly impossible to spot forgeries. The lack of standardization also makes the process more time-consuming and prone to errors, both when verifying and... --- > Synthetic identity fraud prevention is essential to ensure businesses are protected from risk from the fastest-growing financial crime. - Published: 2025-02-26 - Modified: 2025-06-25 - URL: https://idscan.net/blog/how-businesses-can-prevent-synthetic-identity-fraud/ - Categories: ID Fraud Prevention, Identity Verification Technology Synthetic identity fraud is the fastest-growing financial crime in the United States and creates significant risks for businesses, making detection and prevention essential. Synthetic identity fraud is the fastest-growing financial crime in the United States, posing significant risks for both businesses and consumers. What is synthetic identity fraud? Unlike traditional identity theft, which involves stealing someone’s real identity, the most insidious form of synthetic identity fraud creates a completely false identity using a combination of real and fake details, making it a complex challenge for legacy fraud detection systems. Sometimes referred to as manufactured or “Frankenstein” identities, fraudsters use real pieces of someone’s personally identifiable information (PII), which is increasingly accessible due to data breaches - which exposed 353 million US customer records in 2023 alone. How are synthetic identities created? There are a few methods used to create synthetic identities but one of the most common and hardest to detect involves a fraudster using a real person’s personally identifiable information (PII), either stealing it themselves or purchasing from the dark web, altering it slightly, and attempting to pass it off as a legitimate person. The altering of information is where this method diverges from traditional identity theft, making it more difficult to detect. These identities can be bolstered by AI tools which can generate supplemental data, images, or even IDs, in order to make the synthetic identity seem more legitimate. We looked at over 1 million identity verification transactions to pinpoint which pieces of a synthetic identity were most likely to be fraudulent versus tied to legitimate PII. Our findings were that birth date, name, and address were the most commonly faked... --- > We've rounded up the available dispensary laws and compliance guidelines related to ID scanning, identity verification, and PII retention. - Published: 2025-02-20 - Modified: 2025-07-09 - URL: https://idscan.net/blog/id-scanning-laws-for-dispensaries/ - Categories: Age Verification, Cannabis, Compliance, Uncategorized - States: Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Hawaii, Illinois, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, Washington, Washington D.C. This guide is a round-up of all available compliance guidelines related to ID scanning, identity verification, and PII retention for dispensaries. Scanning and PII laws from all US states with medical or recreational cannabis Since Colorado first legalized recreational marijuana in 2012, regulatory agencies and politicians have made keeping cannabis products out of the hands of minors a top priority through age verification legislation and regulatory frameworks. We’ve worked with dispensaries since that time to help automate the age verification process using ID scanning, parsing, and authentication. But as more states have brought cannabis programs online, we quickly learned that not all state laws are created equal, and even within individual states, guidance may vary depending on auditor interpretations of murky laws. This is our attempt to distill 10 years of learning into an easy-to-consume guide for MSOs and dispensaries of all sizes. This guide is not meant to constitute legal advice or take the place as legal counsel. It is simply a round-up of all available (some hard-to-find) compliance guidelines related to ID scanning, identity verification, and PII retention for dispensaries.

We've gathered some key tech-based strategies to future-proof your business against the growing risk of deepfake fraud. The battle against fraud continues to escalate in a race between technological innovators and malicious actors. Cybercriminals continue to adapt their techniques, causing the threat of deepfakes to evolve and grow rapidly. Deepfake technology, which once seemed like something out of science fiction, is now a real and pressing danger for businesses worldwide. With AI tools becoming increasingly sophisticated and more accessible, fraudsters are using them to create hyper-realistic fake documents, images, and videos to defraud businesses. The threat of AI-created fake IDs has become so serious that the FBI issued a public service announcement in December 2024, warning businesses about: Criminals create realistic images for fictitious social media profiles in social engineering, spear phishing, romance schemes, confidence fraud, and investment fraud. Criminals generate fraudulent identification documents, such as fake driver's licenses or credentials (law enforcement, government, or banking) for identity fraud and impersonation schemes. To stay ahead of this threat, businesses must take a proactive, multi-faceted approach to combat emerging fraud tactics. This means investing in adaptive solutions that will evolve as fraud methods change. We've gathered some key tech-based strategies to future-proof your business against the growing risk of deepfake fraud. True document authentication to prevent deepfake ID fraud One of the most significant risks posed by deepfake technology is the ease with which cybercriminals can create high-quality fraudulent identity documents. This makes it essential for businesses that rely on document-based identity verification to utilize true ID authentication processes.

We created a guide to help you make the best decision for your business. When you search for identity verification solutions the results can seem endless – in 2024, Gartner evaluated more than 100 identity verification software products. How can you tell which system is the best fit for your business? Ensuring an identity verification solution meets a variety of metrics is essential to choosing the right fit, whether you are looking to prevent fraud, verify age, or maintain compliance with regulations. Our team of experts has put together the most important things to consider when comparing identity verification solutions to help you make the right decision for your business. 1. Efficacy of document authentication It may seem obvious, but the most important element of any identity verification software is: how good is it at authenticating documents? When choosing an identity verification solution, it is important to look for the types of checks being performed during the drivers license or passport scanning process. IDs are designed with many embedded security features, like holograms, UV images, IR images, and microprint, so when checking for the authenticity of an ID, it is important to start with an authentication-capable scanner that can detect these features. Authentication ID scanners use a series of light checks, typically UV, IR, and white light, and when paired with an identity verification solution like VeriScan Authentication can check these known security features against each state's template. Document authentication solutions like VeriScan also crossmatch the ID information, ensuring the data embedded in the barcode matches the text printed on the ID.

Similar to other age restricted items, vapes can only be purchased by individuals ranging from 18-21, based on state regulations. While purchase of e-cigarettes and vapes by anyone under 18 or 21 is illegal, the products are very popular with high school students. Given the age restricted nature of this product, and its popularity among individuals under 18, it is imperative that businesses implement a stringent age verification process, but how do you know which ID scanner is right for your vape shop? What features to look for in an ID scanner for vape shops While the use case for ID scanners in vape shops may vary slightly from shop to shop, the top features that businesses should look for in an ID scanner remain the same.   Detect fake IDs by verifying the barcode Check for expired IDs Verify the age of your customers Allow for anonymization or tokenization of customer data Configurable PII settings to ensure state compliance Exportable records for compliance checks All of these needs and more can be met using our VeriScan age verification software.

In September 2024, Google unveiled improvements to their user experience including improved digital ID features. Most notably is the ability for US customers to digitize their passport and store the electronic identity document in their Google Wallet. Although more than a dozen US states offer mobile drivers licenses, which allow for their state ID to be stored and used electronically, this marks the first time the US passport has been digitized. The digital identity document is called an ID Pass. It uses NFC and QR codes to transmit the information stored on a passport - the same protocols used by Google Wallet mDLs.   How customers can create a digital ID using a passport Customers start by following the prompts inside the Google Wallet app to “create an ID pass with your U. S. passport”.   Customers are then directed to scan the security RFID chip in the back of their passport. To ensure that the user holding the phone is the same individual as the owner of the passport, customers setting up the digital ID are guided through a selfie video liveness checks that matches their face to the photo on the RFID chip. Google then runs a series of internal checks and cross matches. Once verified, customers will be notified that their digital ID is ready for use. The process typically takes several minutes to propagate. Which businesses accept Google Wallet digital passports? These ID passes are currently only accepted at select TSA checkpoints for domestic travel. Google... --- > Enhanced Drivers Licenses (EDLs) prove US citizenship in addition to identity.

What are Enhanced Drivers Licenses? Enhanced Drivers Licenses (EDLs) prove US citizenship in addition to identity. This enhanced ID format is designed to provide proof of identity for U. S. citizens entering the United States border via vehicle from Canada, Mexico, or the Caribbean, as a cheaper alternative to a passport for North American international travel. EDLs are valid forms of identification at both land and port entries.   The enhanced drivers licenses are issued using a combined RFID technology and MRZ technology that allows for an easier travel experience. MRZ or machine readable zone is a series of internationally standardized characters that, when undamaged or free of tears, can quickly be read by an ID and passport scanner. RFID stores all of the information found on a passport book on chips which are embedded inside the EDLs. It is intended to be read only by a device within 4 inches of the physical chip, thus creating an effectual but speedy identity verification process. Which states currently issue EDLs? As of November 2024, only 5 states issue enhanced drivers licenses as an ID format. While there is no standard application process for an enhanced drivers license, if you live in an applicable state, please follow your state specific application requirements.

This is likely caused by a change in format on the state's REAL ID barcode. An increasing number of Hawaiian ID holders have noticed issues with the barcodes on their valid, government-issued IDs properly scanning. This is likely caused by a change in format on the state's REAL ID barcode that is causing Hawaiian IDs to not scan. Hawaii's REAL IDs have an unusual format for the address data that has been throwing off barcode parsing software. As the REAL ID deadline approaches, an increased number of Hawaiians have received this new ID format, leading to an uptick in frustration when the ID won't scan. Fortunately, ID scanning software providers like IDScan. net were aware of this issue and implemented workarounds as soon as the problem was flagged. According to IDScan. net's technical product manager Matt Stout, "The Hawaiian REAL IDs have reformatted their barcodes slightly. While the problem was unexpected, it was showing up consistently, so we were able to fix the reading issue quickly, ensuring Hawaiian IDs can be scanned. " While IDScan. net's team has been able to ensure the barcodes on Hawaiian REAL IDs can be properly read, it is possible that this will be an ongoing issue with other ID scanning software. Hawaiian IDs are less common, especially in the continental US, so some ID scanning software providers may not be as quick to realize the issue and find a solution. Hawaiian citizens also have a workaround for this issue since the state has a mobile drivers license (mDL).

Six new state mobile ID applications went live in 2024, with an additional ten states introducing legislation for the creation of their own digital ID programs. Several states also launched additional wallets to expand access to their residents. Google also announced plans to offer a digital passport through their mobile wallet. Mobile drivers licenses (mDLs) and digital IDs are transforming the identity landscape not just for consumers, but also for businesses who accept identity documents. Here is a quick look back at the most significant announcements and developments related to mobile IDs this calendar year. What is a mobile ID? Mobile IDs, sometimes referred to as digital IDs, electronic IDs (e-IDs), or mobile drivers licenses (mDLs), are digital versions of a physical drivers license or identification card. They are issued by the jurisdiction’s document issuing authority (commonly the state DMV) and reside securely on a user’s mobile device.   To download a usable mobile ID, users must first have a physical identity document. They often must also receive a piece of mail at the address on their ID.   They then verify their identity by taking a front and back image of their physical ID, then performing a face match to ensure the live individual matches the ID photo. The jurisdiction then issues the mobile credential, which is installed on their phone and can only be accessed with a fingerprint or face ID.... --- > As the 2024 election season heats up, with trends pointing toward record-breaking voter turnout, voters should be cautious about placing their I Voted stickers on their IDs. - Published: 2024-10-30 - Modified: 2024-10-30 - URL: https://idscan.net/blog/remove-i-voted-stickers-from-id/ - Categories: Driver's License & IDs As the 2024 election season heats up, with trends pointing toward record-breaking voter turnout, voters should be cautious about placing their I Voted stickers on their IDs. As the 2024 election season heats up, with trends pointing toward record-breaking voter turnout, voters should be cautious about placing their I Voted stickers on their IDs. Voters are cautioned against placing their I Voted stickers on their IDs to ensure the ID or drivers license can be accurately read and authenticated. While some ID scanners will be able to read the barcode without issue, authentication scanners that perform authentication will flag any ID with a sticker on it as fraudulent. ID authentication processes perform hundreds of security checks on IDs to ensure that they are legitimate. Placing a sticker anywhere on an ID document will cover security features and change the template, causing the ID to be flagged as fraudulent. While taking pride in performing civic duty is understandable, make sure to place your sticker somewhere it will not impede identity verification.

With the biggest cannabis conference of the year, MJBizCon 2024, quickly approaching, our team is looking ahead at the most exciting concepts and technology innovations in the cannatech industry. Here are the top 5 topics we are most excited to see and discuss this December at MJBizCon 2024! 1. Evolving cannabis delivery The shift towards an on-demand, delivery-centric culture is complete. And cannabis is no different than takeout dinners or on-demand liquor delivery.   At IDScan. net, we view examples such as Boston, Massachusetts as a great example for implementation of secure, safe, efficient cannabis delivery programs. Per the Cannabis Control Commission of Massachusetts, recipients must be pre-verified by providing a government issued identification card that will also be used at the time of delivery. This ensures that delivered cannabis interactions adhere to the same stringent standards in place for in-dispensary purchase. Digital identity verification is an ideal pre-verification solution for cannabis deliveries. It can easily be integrated into a native app or customers can be prompted via text message link sent by a budtender. Once prompted, customers can quickly and easily pre-verify themselves by uploading a picture of their ID and completing the face match portion. This ensures minors don’t have the ability to order cannabis online, and dispensaries have an accurate record of all remote orders. 2. Dispensary in a box Unattended retail machines, also known as automated retail kiosks or vending solutions, have significant potential to revolutionize cannabis sales, creating a "dispensary in a box" model that... --- > ProKYC is selling deepfake tools in the cybercriminal underground that aid in synthetic identity theft - learn how to protect your business. - Published: 2024-10-24 - Modified: 2025-06-25 - URL: https://idscan.net/blog/prokyc-synthetic-identity-fraud/ - Categories: Artificial Intelligence, ID Fraud, ID Fraud Prevention While synthetic identity fraud is a known issue, especially for banks and financial institutions, it is once again becoming more difficult to detect as cybercriminals develop more sophisticated fraud methods and share these tools. It has recently come to light that the company ProKYC is selling a deepfake tool in the cybercriminal underground that helps threat actors bypass more sophisticated multi-factor authentication methods. This fraud tool is being used in the cryptocurrency space to successfully conduct account fraud attacks in cryptocurrency exchanges. The crypto space is a prime target for this burgeoning technology, as it is known for being less regulated, or completely unregulated, compared to traditional financial institutions. However, this technology will likely be seen by traditional banks and fintech firms soon, and those that have less sophisticated KYC protocols may fall victim. Even banks and financial institutions that are keeping up with legislation and regulations could still be vulnerable to cybercrime as it evolves more quickly than regulatory agencies can keep up with. There are penalties for perpetrators of identity fraud – in the United States, the maximum penalty is up to 15 year imprisonment and heavy fines. However, this is often not a strong enough deterrent for synthetic identity fraud, which can be very difficult to trace back to the perpetrator. It is essential that decision-makers educate themselves on the newest fraud tactics and employ robust cybersecurity systems to detect and prevent synthetic identity fraud before it takes place. What makes ProKYC's technology different?

How did he do it? With nearly a dozen fake IDs showing aliases from "Roland Butikis" to "Kathy Stone. " Cargo theft is becoming more sophisticated than ever before. Criminals steal shipments using shell companies, P. O. boxes, and most of all: fake IDs. Fake identity documents are a critical component to almost any fraud scheme, as they allow a bad actor to pose as a legitimate individual; in this case, a legitimate truck driver with authority to pick up valuable shipments. How criminals use fake IDs to steal cargo A cargo fraud scam often goes something like this: A fraudster poses as an agent for a shipping or logistics company. They may pose as an employee of a legitimate or trusted company. Or they may impersonate a fictitious company using a phony website and email address, counting on your business not to dig too deeply. Sometimes they piggyback off a defunct or lapsed business's website, stealing the domain, but allowing themselves to utilize the good reputation of the original site's owner. In some cases, they will even have you remit payment to this entity, because their scam is to steal the cargo, not the payment for shipping. Next the fraudsters create fake documentation. This includes fake IDs under an assumed identity. These can be purchased for as little as... --- > Learnings from NACS 2024, related to use of ID scanning technology by c-stores and quick shop retailers for age verification and security. - Published: 2024-10-14 - Modified: 2024-10-14 - URL: https://idscan.net/blog/our-top-3-takeaways-from-the-nacs-conference/ - Categories: Age Verification, Retail The National Association of Convenience Stores (NACS) Show is a fantastic opportunity to learn from industry leaders and understand the latest trends shaping the future of convenience retail. We were able to sit down with multiple operations professionals at NACS2024, to discuss their challenges related to ID scanning, security, age verification, and more. This year’s event left us with some powerful insights, particularly around security, technology, and the evolving role of store operations. Technology is essential to combatting beer & alcohol theft at c-stores Beer theft has become a major issue for many convenience stores, and it was a hot topic at the conference. This theft goes beyond teenagers stealing a six-pack for a night out and is often organized and planned in advance by sophisticated fraud rings. One of the most effective strategies discussed is the integration of ID scanners to prevent unauthorized access to alcohol. In some stores, coolers or "Beer Caves" are adding self-service ID scanning before entering areas in which alcohol (or other high value items) are stored. This ensures that minors can't easy access the products, but also provides a speed bump for thieves of all kinds.

Introduction Last year, we produced our first annual Fake ID Report, detailing findings from the scanning of 40,000,000 identity documents across our platform. This year, we scanned more than 130,000,000 physical IDs, and have a batch of fresh findings to help your business reduce risk, stay compliant, and avoid accidentally accepting a fake ID. Fake IDs are most commonly produced outside the United States, and manufacturers are in a constant race to produce the most realistic IDs that will pass visual and electronic muster. While in the past, fake IDs might have been hastily printed, or contain obviously photoshopped elements, today’s fake IDs are incredibly sophisticated. Many have barcodes that can be scanned, ultraviolet and infrared markings, and security elements such as windowpanes, microprints, and textured lettering. The quality of fakes makes them harder, but not impossible to spot. This report is based on our identification of more than 1,000,000 possibly fraudulent identity documents, caught at a variety of business types. Although no technology is capable of catching 100% of fake IDs, our secret shopping and continuous testing routinely indicates that VeriScan ID Authentication is capable of detecting up to 95% of fake IDs and drivers licenses. We’re sharing our 2024 fake ID report to help better equip your business in the fight against underage sales and ID fraud. How common are fake IDs? Fake IDs are created for all 50 states, and owned by tens of thousands of underage individuals. According to a 2007 study by the National Library... --- > Learn more about VeriLocks - ID scanning activated door locks and access control using a tablet-based ID scanner. - Published: 2024-09-12 - Modified: 2024-10-02 - URL: https://idscan.net/blog/add-id-activated-door-locks-with-verilocks/ - Categories: ID Fraud, ID Scanning Hardware, Security There is a growing need across multiple industries for solutions to address physical security and access management without the need for additional staff. These solutions are needed to address multiple problems including retail shrinkage, store security and employee safety, and increasingly restrictive age verification laws. ID-activated door locks provide an ideal solution to create a "security speed bump" at key access points, by requiring entrants to scan their IDs. The mere act of being asked to present an ID puts downward pressure on crime, as most criminals do not want to present identification or create a log of their activity. Additionally, ID scanners integrated with door locks can be configured to allow/deny access based on age (18+, 21+), or based on pre-set allow/deny lists. When paired with an IDWare Falcon touchscreen tablet, VeriScan is capable of integrating with any electronic door strike to turn your access point into an ID-activated entry. We call this configuration VeriLocks, as it is specifically designed for self-service access management, with guests using their own ID as the "key" to activate the door lock. Using ID activated door locks for age-restricted areas Common age-restricted areas include cannabis dispensaries, bars, beer coolers/wine caves, gaming rooms, casinos, and adult merchandise shops. These areas require age verification not just for the purchase of certain age restricted products, but in order to legally allow individuals on-premises. The need to verify age twice creates the need for additional staff/bouncers, more processes, and a cumbersome experience for guests. In some environments,... --- > Effective January 1, 2025, Illinois SB 3098 will require all online tobacco related sales to employ age verification prior to sales. - Published: 2024-09-10 - Modified: 2024-09-10 - URL: https://idscan.net/blog/illinois-sb-3098-age-verification-for-online-tobacco-sales/ - Categories: Laws by State, Retail - Tags: Age Verification, Compliance, New Legislation - States: Illinois Effective January 1, 2025, Illinois SB 3098 will require all online tobacco related sales to employ age verification prior to sales.

While there are plenty of success stories of couples meeting through apps, they are also rife with opportunities for scammers and criminals, leading developers to implement more robust identity verification for their dating apps or sites. Dating apps have started to decline in popularity, in part due to negative press and safety concerns. While apps like Tinder and Bumble once had a stronghold in the dating market, now 79% of US college students are not using dating apps, with almost half citing safety as the top reason they choose not to date online. Most dating app users have encountered catfishers and bots, often attempting financial scams, and some have even fallen victim to violent and tragic crimes perpetrated by another user on the app. Some of the largest dating apps on the market have begun strengthening their identity verification processes to keep their businesses profitable and keep users safe. As dating apps and sites implement identity verification, it can be difficult to understand how effective these methods are. We've compiled the most recent information on dating app identity verification processes and put them into three categories – strong, moderate, and weak.

Whether you're making friends, keeping in touch with family, finding a job, advertising a business, or keeping up with the news, social media has become a must-have in modern society. This prevalence, combined with the anonymity provided by some sites, has made social media platforms a rich target for fraud, scams, and other crimes. Experts have suggested social media identity verification for account creation as a solution to this issue. As of June 2023, about 1 in 5 Twitter accounts were fake or spam. These fake accounts are often used for phishing, digital payment fraud, bullying, and disinformation campaigns. Verifying identity for account creation is a hotly debated topic, but is currently supported by 60% of social media users, according to Media. com Additionally, social media as a fraud vector is exploding. The percentage of identity fraud attacks on social media accounts exploded in 2024, growing from just 2% in Q1 to 16% in Q2. Currently, social media identity verification is not standard for account creation on most sites, but many have begun to offer verification checkmarks. These checkmarks indicate that the user has been verified, although the means of verification varies between platforms, and some platforms limit this feature to select users or business accounts. This article will not debate the pros and cons of de-anonymization of social media platforms, but to give the most recent status across popular sites.

With digital ID rollout accelerating, more and more citizens are installing their state's mobile ID apps. These users are adopting the new ID format with the hope of leaving their wallet behind, and can already use their mobile ID for things like identity verification at the TSA, or at bars and restaurants. But with the US election coming in November, can Americans use a digital ID to vote? Mobile ID implementation and acceptance vary significantly from state to state. Acceptance of the mobile ID for individual use cases must be determined on the state level. Currently, there are 13 states with active digital IDs, 2 in pilot, and several states with adoption in the works. Currently, it's only safe to rely on your mobile ID if you are voting in Louisiana or Mississippi. Despite the growing number of states launching digital IDs, many have not explicitly stated that they can or will accept mobile IDs at the polls. Non-expired state-issued ID cards are accepted for voting in all states, which theoretically should include mDLs unless stated otherwise, but there is no guarantee that election volunteers will be trained to accept them if they are not on the list of accepted documents provided by the secretary of state’s office. See below for more details about using your mobile ID to vote in upcoming elections. Can you use your mobile ID to vote in Arizona? Maybe.

The earliest known deepfake video surfaced in 2017 and since then, they have become increasingly common, especially with the increased adoption of AI technology. While deepfakes can be used for harmless entertainment, like putting Sylvester Stalone in the role of Kevin from Home Alone, research has shown that deepfake-related identity fraud cases have skyrocketed in recent years, rising by a whopping 3,000% in the US from 2022 to 2023. Learning about deepfake technology and how it can be detected is essential for businesses to protect their customers and assets. First things first – what is a deepfake? A deepfake is an image, audio, or video generated by a specific kind of machine learning. According to the University of Virginia, two algorithms are used to create deepfakes. One algorithm is fed examples to create the best possible replicas of the images or videos. The other algorithm is trained to detect fake images or videos. These two algorithms alternate outputs, improving both algorithms and allowing the ultimate image or video to be extremely realistic. In the past, similar types of fraud would have had to be done through manual altering processes, like photoshopping and video editing. These processes were often time-consuming and often still easy to identify as fake. Because deepfakes are generated using AI specifically trained for realistic outputs, it is much more difficult to detect that a deepfake is fraudulent. How are deepfakes used to commit fraud? Deepfake fraud is committed by impersonating real individuals or creating completely new identities,... --- > Identity fraud related in the automotive industry accounted for $619 million in losses in 2022.

These are the top two ways to combat it! In a recent analysis of all IDs scanned by our automotive customers, an average of 4. 15% of IDs presented to automotive businesses in North America showed signs of being fraudulent. This echoes recent data from Experian: identity fraud related in the automotive industry accounted for $619 million in losses in 2022 and 79% of car dealerships have reported experiencing identity fraud-related vehicle loss.   With fake ID technology becoming more sophisticated, these are the top 2 ways to verify identity and prevent ID fraud and theft for auto dealerships and car rental businesses. Verify identity on-site at the dealership VeriScan Authentication is a sophisticated, AI powered identity verification software that can catch up to 95% of fake IDs. ID authentication is an ideal solution for dealerships who want to verify the identity of individuals at the lot. On-site identity verification can help deter walk-in fraudsters, and improve data integrity and privacy of all customers, since it eliminates the need for manual data entry or photocopies of IDs.   Your salesperson, loan officer, or front desk agent simply scans the guest’s ID, and quickly receives back information about the ID’s validity.   This is done through a series of security checks under multiple light wavelengths, using specialty hardware. A phone, or low end scanner, will not be equipped with the type of camera or lighting required to truly put an ID through its paces.   Add Additional Third party checks to VeriScan Auto dealerships or car rental companies can also... --- > Visitor management software for schools can vastly improve daily processes and increase security.

Here are the top features for schools. Most schools have processes in place to check visitors in, or to show who is allowed to interact with children on the premises. With new legislation popping up everywhere in an effort to help protect children, identity verification and visitor management plays a key role in minimizing the risk to children’s safety. Here, we discuss some of the best visitor management software features for schools, and how the implementation of these technology solutions can improve security to your school or educational facility. Badge creation & printing Badge creation and printing is an important visitor management feature for schools because it allows easy tracking of guests. The time stamped and self-expiring badges allow for quick visual inspection of whether someone should be on school premises or not.   Badge printing is a visitor management feature for schools that is available in both VeriScan for Windows and VeriScan for iOS. Both VeriScan apps can utilize a cloud badge that is set up using the badge maker on the VeriScan Cloud portal. The badge can be printed with an expiration on it, showing how long a particular visitor is allowed to be on-site. This can be achieved by either buying badge labels that are self-expiring after 24 hours or with a custom badge in which a specified time/date can be added onto it. Third party checks Third party checks are extremely beneficial visitor management features for schools because they go beyond regular ID checks.

The DMV Commissioner is calling it their most secure design to date and is the first update to their driver's license template in nine years. The new cards will be laser engraved and include over 50 security features to detect and prevent fraud. Front of the new North Carolina driver's license The front of the new North Carolina driver's license will include a detailed, fine print behind the entirety of the front of the ID.

Is it legal, and what do they do with the information? Most travelers are familiar with the hotel check-in process: as a guest you walk in, and hand the front desk your ID and a credit card. After the front desk agent scans or reviews both documents, you’re checked in and handed your room key. But what does the hotel do with your ID, and is it required that they scan your ID? Why do they sometimes make a photocopy, and how is that paper copy of your drivers license stored by the hotel? Although checking a guest’s ID is a standard practice at almost all hotels, whether or not it is a requirement is a murky, legal area. Each US state has certain requirements surrounding guest registers and the processes surrounding it. Here, we will break down the specific requirements in each state surrounding scanning IDs at a hotel.   Does a hotel need to scan your ID during check-in? We gathered and reviewed requirements in the hospitality industry in all US states, to determine which states have requirements around ID verification, and which do not. No* - Not required but there may be caveats when the sale of age restricted products are involved. Why do hotels check guest IDs? In most instances, hotels check guest IDs to keep updated guest manifests.

Maryland recently passed a new law, SB 1056, that will require certain licensed retailers to verify an individual’s date of birth before selling cigarettes, other tobacco products, vapes, or electronic smoking devices in a certain manner. A person may verify age using a government issued photo ID and in direct face-to-face exchange including the assistance of any electronic or mechanical device. The new went into effect July 1, 2024. What does this mean? Simply, you can use an ID scanner to check a customer’s ID as a means of verifying age prior to tobacco purchases. Any person appearing to be under thirty should have their age verified either manually by the attendant at the retail store, or by using age verification technology. While it is not required to scan IDs as a means of age verification, it can help you avoid hefty fines if prosecuted in court. “In a prosecution for a violation of this section, it is a defense that the defendant examined the purchaser’s or recipients driver’s license or other valid identification issued by a government unit that positively identified the purchaser or recipient is at least 21 years of age or at least 18 years of age and an active duty member of the military” Fines for noncompliance of Maryland SB 1056 First violation results in a $300 fine Second violation within a 24 month period results in a $1000 fine Each subsequent violation in a 24 month period results in a $3000 fine How does ID... --- > The concept of a cannabis vending machine has been a popular one for many years, but which states are they legal in? - Published: 2024-05-13 - Modified: 2025-02-07 - URL: https://idscan.net/blog/the-state-of-weed-vending-machines/ - Categories: Age Verification, Cannabis The concept of a cannabis vending machine has been a popular one for many years, but which states are they legal in? The COVID-19 pandemic changed the landscape of cannabis sales, fueling the successful, rapid adoption of curbside pickup, drive-thru, and delivery services. As the landscape continues to evolve, the cannabis industry has its eye on another proven alternative to in-person retail transactions – unattended retail. The concept of a cannabis vending machine has been popular for many years due to the desire to add a new revenue stream without large additional startup or labor costs. They can also decrease the complexity of the dispensary experience, which currently includes multiple interactions with security, ID checkers, budtenders, and cashiers, by streamlining cannabis purchases to a more simplified checkout process. Cannabis vending machines aren't the old-school vending machines where you press B3 in order to get a bag of chips – these are innovative units with interactive touch screens that offer an endless array of product options while performing age and identity verification to ensure compliance with regulations. What are weed vending machines? Vending machines for age-restricted products are not a new concept but are far less common in the US today than their non-age-restricted counterparts.  Cigarette vending machines were first developed in 1926 by William Rowe, who went on to found the first manufacturing company in the U. S. to mass produce unattended retail machines for tobacco. However, due to the inability of these machines to verify the age of the consumer, these devices have become relatively rare and are typically only found in places that restrict minors from entering, like bars or nightclubs.... --- > The new legislative year is in full swing, here are the ID scanning law updates to start Q1 of 2024.

Summary of Q1 2024 legislation relating to ID scanning or identity verification As the middle of 2024 approaches, many legislatures have concluded their 2023-24 sessions while others continue to be active. However, there has been far less activity this quarter than in the fourth quarter of last year on the regulation of scanning technology at the point of sale for tobacco and alcohol products. Only one bill was signed into law this quarter: the Governor of Virginia enacted a bill that requires tobacco retail dealers to verify the identification of consumers by using scanning technology. Tobacco Virginia Governor Youngkin signed into law a bill that requires retail dealers that sell retail tobacco products, other than cigar and pipe tobacco products, to verify the identification presented using identification fraud detection software, technology, or a scanner that confirms the authenticity of such identification. The bill is effective July 1, 2024. Penalties A Virginia bill seeks to increase the civil penalties for the purchase of tobacco products by persons under the age of twenty-one. Other products include nicotine vapor products, alternative nicotine products, and hemp products. The civil penalties would also increase for retail establishments that sell the products to any individual who does not produce a driver’s license or photo identification.   In Missouri a bill would add penalty provisions for transactions involving secure identity verification. Any licensee who sells intoxicating liquor to any person under the age of twenty-one will be guilty of a misdemeanor.

In this post we'll break down each guideline, what it means for your dispensary or cannabis retailer, and how you can ensure compliance. Age Verification Functionality Scanners must include robust age verification functionality to ensure customers meet the legal age requirement for cannabis purchases. Additionally, scanners should have the capability to detect expired IDs to prevent unauthorized purchases. What this actually means Simply, you are required to use an ID scanner to check each ID. That scanner must be able to read the barcode of the ID and check the age against today's date. It should also be able to read the expiration date of the ID to flag if the ID is expired. This is easy and is available in almost every commercially available ID scanning app or age verification system. Underage pop-up inside VeriScan Can IDScan. net VeriScan comply? Yes.

The threat of return fraud is looming over the grocery industry, posing an escalating challenge of both financial losses and lack of trust between businesses and customers. The urgency for effective solutions has never been more apparent, as the average grocery merchant estimates that 1. 2% of their orders end up being ‘friendly fraud’ - and because of how difficult it can be to track, that number is likely a lot higher. Amidst this backdrop, Rouses, one of the largest independent grocers in the United States, partnered with IDScan. net to embark on a strategic initiative to combat the tide of fraudulent returns, setting a new standard for security and efficiency in grocery retail operations. The challenge of return fraud in grocery retail For retailers across the spectrum – from supercenters to local independent grocers – the repercussions of return fraud are felt in many ways. These include diminished profits, affected employee morale, eroded customer trust, and compromised store safety. The National Retail Federation’s estimate that 10. 3% of all returns are fraudulent underscores the scale of this issue, translating into an $18. 4 billion annual loss nationwide. These figures reveal the pressing need for robust, innovative solutions that could adapt to the complex dynamics of modern grocery retail operations.

One new feature is the windowpane feature. As fake ID technology continues to improve, states are constantly adding new security features to state IDs. This is done in an effort to thwart fraudsters and make IDs more difficult to properly replicate. One new security feature that has been gaining popularity across the United States is the windowpane feature, also known as the looking glass feature. This new ID security feature is quite literally a windowpane or looking glass. It is a clear area on the ID with a copy of the ID photo printed on top of the area. The windowpane or looking glass feature can be held up to a light to ensure the area is transparent as a confirmation of this security feature.   Ensure that your ID fraud prevention software can properly detect windowpane security features, as well as flag improperly designed windowpanes on fake IDs. States with the windowpane security feature Arkansas Arkansas has a circular windowpane in the bottom right corner of the ID. It is only partially obscured by the ID photo. Colorado Colorado has a rectangular windowpane with rounded corners in the bottom right corner of the ID. It is only partially obscured by the ID photo. District of Columbia Washington D.

One of the more unique features are holograms. ID security features are design elements that can help determine whether an ID is real or fake, and are crucial in preventing ID fraud. Holograms are ne of the more popular ID security features. Because holograms require special printers, paper, and ink, they ensure that regular individuals and fraudsters cannot just print their own fake IDs. Holograms can also be very beautiful; states like to design intricate holograms to beautify their unique drivers license and ID formats. Although only some states have elements that meet the technical definition of a "hologram", many states have a pearlescent design overlays which looks very similar and can often be mistaken for a hologram.   While states follow guidelines from either the ICAO or AAMVA for where specific security features should be placed on the respective state ID, the designs differ from state to state, and understanding which states have holograms and pearlescent design elements can help business owners due to their unique three-dimensional effects. These effects can easily be seen without using any special technology. This is because the light is reflected or diffused off the nano-structures, creating an easy to see design. We extensively examined each state's ID to help create a better understanding of what to look for when checking IDs for holograms or pearlescent overlay, as you determine an ID’s legitimacy. Given that each state has creative autonomy, the design and number of occurrences of holograms for each state differs.

Our team quickly tracked down the darkweb websites hosting ID image generators, to see what the fuss was about and just how good these supposedly "1-to-1" fakes were. After quickly testing some AI-generated fake IDs we found in hidden telegram threads (we caught them all) we set to work purchasing a few fake ID images of our own to see how well they performed when tested against our VeriScan and DIVE software platforms. ID fraud prevention is critical for business looking to prevent fraudulent account creations and ensure all users are legitimate and legal. Why would someone need an image of an ID? Fake IDs are used for a variety of purposes, but most commonly associated with circumventing age restrictions. These AI-generated images will not work for these purposes, as no printing of the actual ID is occurring. These image generating tools don't have brick-and-mortar businesses - they are not printing IDs, they don't have paper or holograms. They are only producing images of the IDs. Images of fake IDs won't work for getting into a bar or dispensary, but they do serve a purpose for digital transactions. These images can be used in electronic scenarios when a website, application, or business requests identification to perpetrate a deepfake scam: Account creation for financial transactions Account setup or verification for online dating Scheduling a high risk transaction in person (vehicle test drive, apartment tour,... --- > Overview of the anatomy of a drivers license, including barcode, security features, text, and design, and what each element means. - Published: 2024-03-25 - Modified: 2025-06-24 - URL: https://idscan.net/blog/anatomy-of-a-drivers-license/ - Categories: Driver's License & IDs Driver’s licenses contain a plethora of information on a 2 ⅛ x 3 ⅜ card.

But with 50 states, and each state issuing multiple types of drivers licenses and IDs, it can be challenging to understand what every field or piece of data means. But IDs designs also have a secondary purpose: security. Hundreds of thousands of fake IDs are created every year, both for minors looking to gain access to age restricted products like alcohol and cannabis, and for fraudsters looking to conceal their identity. Every drivers license produced now must contain a multitude of security features to make the ID more difficult to fake, and make it easier for ID scanning software to differentiate legitimate IDs from fake IDs. In this blog we'll review all the data typically contained on an ID, and its purpose. Information on the front of an ID The front of a drivers license provides all the information on an individual in a visual format, readable by humans. The front of the ID also contains information about the state itself, such as the name of the state, the Secretary of State for the state at the time when the ID was issued. The following personal information can be... --- > With digital IDs on the rise, more and more people are transitioning to the new ID format, but will police accept a digital ID? - Published: 2024-03-19 - Modified: 2025-03-27 - URL: https://idscan.net/blog/will-police-accept-a-digital-id/ - Categories: Driver's License & IDs, Mobile Drivers' License (mdl), Security With digital IDs on the rise, more and more people are transitioning to the new ID format, but will police accept a digital ID? With digital IDs on the rise, more and more people are transitioning to the new ID format, but will police accept a digital ID?

Here, we break down some common scenarios. As our world moves to an increasingly digital landscape, more and more of our daily items are shifting to being fully digital. Digital IDs are at the forefront of development for states and appmakers alike. It is estimated that at least 4. 5 million Americans have already signed up for a digital ID, and that is only from the apps that have been fully released. The numbers will increase exponentially when multiple pilots are fully implemented, and more states pass legislation for mobile IDs. While digital IDs are becoming more and more popular, it begs the question, will police accept a digital ID? There isn’t a yes or no answer to this question. Instead, at least until legislation is passed on a federal level, the answer varies on a state level. But which states even have digital IDs?

The new ID features new design elements as well as new security features. Michigan recently released a new ID format which features not only a new design, but new security features as well. The old design featured the beloved Mackinac Bridge. The new Michigan ID design will no longer feature the bridge, but will instead feature the Michigan Coat of Arms.   Another new ID feature will be the two line name format, designed to accommodate individuals with longer names. There are also several new security features that have been added in an effort to make counterfeiting IDs more difficult.   For those individuals under 21, while the design may change, the orientation will still be in the vertical format for quick determination that a person is under 21. However, the one major change for under 21 IDs is that the IDs will no longer say “Under the age of” and will instead read “Under the age of 21 UNTIL” New design features Mackinac Bridge replaced with the Michigan Coat of Arms Font and color scheme have been updated Names of the 5 Great Lakes are displayed in multicolor text Two line name format for longer names White star inside a gold Michigan emblem to indicate REAL ID compliance New phrasing on under 21 IDs (see above) New security features Laser perforations Touchable indentations Engraved data Magnetic stripe on the back has been replaced with a scannable barcode Waving American flag Is my current ID still valid?   Yes, your current Michigan ID is still valid until the expiration date on the current... --- > Louisiana introduced Bill SB168 in an attempt to prevent underage alcohol sales.

The bill would increase penalties for underage alcohol sales. On Thursday, March 7th, Louisiana state representative Beth Mizell introduced Bill SB168, which would make substantial changes to penalties for underage alcohol sales. This bill is a direct response to the tragic death of Madison Brooks at a Tigerland bar in January 2023. If this bill is passes, there will be several key changes for bar owners and businesses that serve alcohol: SB168 increases the fines a business will pay if caught serving a minor 1st time offense increases from $50 to $100-$1,000 2nd offense upper limit increases from $1,000 to $2,500 3rd offense upper limit increases from $2,500 to $5,000 After any violation, ID scanning will be required before the sale of alcoholic beverages. These changes, if passed, will go into effect August 1, 2024, right before students head back to school for the fall, which represents one of the busiest seasons for fake ID usage. Louisiana does not provide any affirmative defense if a fake ID was used. So it is absolutely crucial that the electronic ID scanner used be able to catch fakes. Our VeriScan software can comply with the legislation. As a Louisiana-based ID scanning software provider, we feel we are the best choice to equip businesses to protect themselves from underage sales, catch fake IDs, and maintain detail logs to prevent litigation.   We look forward to discussing this with the Agency Commissioner in the coming weeks and will be posting updates on our ID Laws page as well as across our social media sites. --- > Learn about TWAIN compliant scanners, how they transfer data, and which ID scanners are TWAIN compatible. - Published: 2024-03-06 - Modified: 2024-03-19 - URL: https://idscan.net/blog/guide-to-twain-compliant-scanners/ - Categories: Compliance, ID Scanning Hardware Many of our customers reach out out to our team looking for TWAIN compliant scanners. Here is a quick guide to TWAIN - how it is used, which ID scanners can utilize TWAIN What is "TWAIN"? TWAIN is an acronym that stands for "Technology Without An Interesting Name" (yes, really). It was first released in 1992 by a group of imaging companies. TWAIN is a standard for communication between software applications (like VeriScan) and imaging devices like ID scanners, digital cameras, copy machines, etc. The TWAIN standard ensures that these devices can be easily integrated into software, and allow for users to import the images and files captured with the imaging device directly into their application. TWAIN is just a developer tool, not a workflow. There is no regulating body or standard, or stamp of approval that a particular ID scanner is "TWAIN compliant. " However, most commercially available ID scanners use the TWAIN standard because it means that they can be easily integrated with a variety of software applications, making them more commercially attractive. What is the TWAIN standard? There are a few key elements of the TWAIN standard, though different products may implement them differently. TWAIN standards will have a driver (or firmware) that is installed which allows the computing device to read data and images captured by the hardware. This is standardized. TWAIN standards will have an API with a standardized set of commands and functions that can be used to communicate with the imaging device.

Learn more about what that means and follow for more updates. New York has proposed a new bill, New York Assembly Bill 3404. The new bill would be very similar to the one previously passed in Nevada, AB360, which requires all tobacco retailers to scan IDs. What is New York Bill 3404? The new bill states that prior to the sale of tobacco, herbal cigarettes, liquid nicotine, shisha, or electronic cigarettes, an individual must present some form of valid ID and said ID must be used in a transaction scan by the seller. In simpler terms, the buyer must present an ID for the seller to scan to ensure age requirements are met.  The bill would require that retailers of tobacco use an ID scanner. Acceptable forms of identification are outlined as: a valid driver’s license or non-driver’s identification card issued by the commissioner of motor vehicles, the federal government, any United States territory, commonwealth or possession, the District of Columbia, a state government within the United States or a provincial government of the dominion of Canada a valid passport issued by the United States government or any other country an identification card issued by the armed forces of the United States, indicating that the individual is at least twenty-one years of age If the buyer reasonably appears to be at least 25 years of age, the presentation of an ID is not required, however, by not doing so, an affirmative defense in any proceeding regarding the sale of tobacco products would be forfeited.   When would Bill 3404 go into... --- > Pennsylvania Act 49 now requires ID scanning prior to alcohol sales at amusement parks with public venue licenses.

Ensure compliance now. At the end of 2023 on December 14th, the Pennsylvania General Assembly passed House Bill 1096, which is now being referred to as Pennsylvania Act 49. This new legislation is an amendment to the Liquor Code from April 12, 1951. This new act went into effect 60 days after the bill was passed, so as of February 12, 2024, Pennsylvania Act 49 is now active.   New Legislation Pennsylvania Act 49 establishes that amusement parks may sell liquor and malt or brewed beverages from 11:00AM - 11:00PM, when appropriately licensed. An amusement park that holds a public venue license shall utilize a transaction scan device to verify the age of an individual who appears to be under thirty five years of age before making a sale of liquor and malt brewed beverages.   ID Scanning Requirements As defined by the law, the transaction scan device must be capable of deciphering, in an electronically readable format, the information encoded on the magnetic stripe or bar code of an identification card. In other words, you need an ID scanner that can read and parse the data into an easily readable format. PII and Data Retention Pennsylvania Act 49 specifically states that an amusement park may not sell or share any data from the use of a transaction scan device. The licensee is, however, allowed to retain the data from said scans to show the enforcement bureau of the board that they remain in compliance with Pennsylvania Act 49.

Using ID authentication when drivers license scanning can help catch the fakes! - Published: 2024-02-19 - Modified: 2025-02-21 - URL: https://idscan.net/blog/which-states-include-microprint-as-a-security-feature-on-their-id/ - Categories: Uncategorized - States: Alabama Microprint is one of the most common ID security features. Using ID authentication when drivers license scanning can help catch the fakes! ID security features are among the key factors that help determine whether an ID is real or fake. One such security feature is microprint. What is microprint on an ID? As the name suggests, microprint is extremely small text that is often incorporated into the design of a driver’s license as a security measure. Because the print is extremely small, and difficult to see with the naked eye, it is often omitted from low quality fake IDs, or blurred beyond readability when an ID is replicated using low quality equipment. While states follow guidelines from either the ICAO or AAMVA for where specific security features should be placed on the respective state ID, the designs differ from state to state, and some states do not always adhere to the standard. Which state IDs have microprints? We extensively examined each ID to help create a better understanding of what to look for when using microprint to help determine an ID’s legitimacy. Given that each state has a different design, the text and number of occurrences of microprint for each state is different. Because of this, microprint is one of the most difficult ID security features to reproduce. Below we have listed all the states with microprint built into the ID security features, and how many occurrences of microprint exist on each state design version.   Alabama Alabama only has one occurrence of microprint on their ID.

In February 2023 news agencies picked up a story about darkweb app known as OnlyFake which purports to use neural networks to generate fake ID images that can be used to fool remote identity verification tools. Sites like Bitcoin, which require only a photo of an ID to sign up, are at risk from customers using AI-generated fake IDs to sign up under a false identity. Major advances in the capabilities and availability of artificial intelligence have been a concern for fraud watchdogs over the past several years, so our team quickly jumped to action to see just how good these AI-created fake IDs could be. Testing the OnlyFake App The site OnlyFake is easily accessible via a Google search. It is a free site for AI-generation of adult images. As most of the news articles referenced "Only Fake" we decided to briefly try the site to see if it was the culprit, responsible. A quick prompt of "woman's Louisiana drivers license" quickly produced the following image. Although all AI needs prompts and training to generate the desired result, this image was so far off from a visually passable ID, let alone one that would scan and fool an ID scanner, we figured this site couldn't be the location that fraudsters were using to generate their forged documents.

Summary of Q4 2023 legislation relating to ID scanning or identity verification The 2024 legislative sessions have begun in all but a handful of states. However, there has been far less activity this month than there was in the fourth quarter of last year on the regulation of scanning technology at the point of sale for tobacco and alcohol products. Alcoholic Beverages  A Pennsylvania bill to require amusement parks to utilize a transaction scan device to verify the age of an individual who purchases alcoholic beverages was approved by the Governor. The bill defines transaction scan devices and would allow the amusement parks to accept identification that cannot be scanned. The law will be effective March 14, 2024.   Current law in Wisconsin prohibits municipalities from providing alcohol retail licenses with any device capable of scanning a driver's license or identification card issued by the Department of Transportation. Bills introduced in the Assembly and Senate bills would repeal that prohibition. Additionally, a municipality that provided such a device would not be allowed to collect or retain data derived from the device.   Other A New York bill that would require second-hand dealers and pawnbrokers to scan a copy of identification prior allowing a person to purchase property was referred to the Consumer Protection Committee.

These businesses span every industry, from hotels to scrap metal yards to pharmacies. However, these disparate businesses share a common need: to quickly ingest accurate identity data into their software systems. We launched the WizzForms product in 2008 to meet this need. It was software in a box, and our first few customers installed the solution using a CD-ROM with “WizzForms” written on it by our then CEO. Since 2008, the product hasn’t changed much, though we’ve expanded the number of scanners we integrate with, and greatly improved our ability to catch fake IDs. But WizzForms has remained Windows-based software for ingesting ID data into various software applications.   Across the WizzForms customer base we’ve consistently heard feedback that users are looking for several pieces of enhanced functionality: Easier licensing with pro-rated renewals across all their devices Easier transfer of each license between computers Ability to create a single ID parsing profile and push it out across multiple computers Ability to catch fake IDs and stop them from populating into their application We are pleased to announce that these features will be live on March 19! However, it was simply not possible to build these pieces of functionality in desktop, offline software. In order to deliver these features to our customers we needed to rebuild the software from the ground up.

They are also a popular tool for fraudsters. Man used fake ID to steal Tesla, tried to steal a second Man used fake ID to steal laptop Migrant workers caught in fake ID scheme Woman used fake ID to live at Atlanta apartment complex Fake IDs can be ordered cheaply online, and many fake IDs look and feel completely legitimate. Fake ID manufacturers even advertise that the fakes they sell are "scannable. " The only way to reliably flag fake IDs is to use a fake ID scanner app - sophisticated, AI-powered software that performs checks to determine if an ID is real. Below, we'll go through some of the key ways that app-based fake ID detection tools look for fakes. Barcode analysis When an ID is scanned, what's really happening is that the software is reading the 2D barcode (also known as a PDF417) on the back of the ID. The barcode contains all the information on the front of the ID (name, first name, date of birth) and can be decoded by barcode-reading software. Quality fake ID scanner apps and software don't just read the barcode and determine the customer's age. They perform algorithmic checks on the ID's barcode, looking at a variety of things: Data format (does the way the data is structured match the known jurisdictional format? ) Data order Barcode size Barcode placement More Because app-based fake ID... --- > Review the top features for ID scanners for bars and nightclubs, including banned lists, VIP lists, fake ID detection, and age verification. - Published: 2024-01-04 - Modified: 2024-03-19 - URL: https://idscan.net/blog/key-features-for-your-id-scanner-for-bars/ - Categories: Bars & Nightclubs, ID Scanning Hardware In 2024, businesses have software options to streamline almost every aspect of their operations. Age verification, visitor management, and ID scanning is no exception. In this post we'll briefly review some of the most important features for bars and nightclubs when choosing an ID scanner. Age verification for bars (21+) Most likely, if you're purchasing an ID scanner for your bar, you're looking to verify age to keep minors out of your establishment. Verifying age has multiple components: Reading the age on the presented ID Checking to ensure the ID is expired (as old IDs are often handed off to friends to use after a new ID is delivered) Checking for fake IDs Almost all ID scanning apps are capable of doing the first two (checking age and ID expiration date) but many cannot do the third. Catching fake IDs requires knowledge of ID templates, hallmarks of fraudulent identity documents, and being able to rapidly look for these signs. With mobile apps, age verification software is limited to looking at the information stored in the ID's barcode, and sometimes features and design elements on the back of the ID. Using an electronic ID scanner provides the above benefits and removes the onus of mental math, and checking for fake IDs from your bouncers or security team. It also can provide an affirmative defense in many states. This means that if you scan the ID you are off-the-hook if a minor then commits a crime. There are also many security features... --- > Compare the E-Seek M260 ID & Magstripe Reader to the E-Seek M280 Flatbed ID Scanner and Image Capture Device. - Published: 2023-12-20 - Modified: 2023-12-20 - URL: https://idscan.net/blog/what-is-the-difference-between-the-e-seek-m80-and-the-e-seek-m260/ - Categories: ID Scanning Hardware Compare and contrast two E-Seek Windows-compatible ID scanners The E-Seek M260 is an an extremely small, lightweight ID scanning device. It fits in the palm of the hand and was created to allow for reading barcodes and magstripes. In addition to 2D barcode reading the E-Seek M260 features magstripe reading. The magstripe reader can be used for reading the magstripe symbology on an ID (a format which has mostly fallen out of favor in 2023). Most credit cards also contain magstripes, meaning that the E-Seek M260 can be configured to read both IDs and scan credit cards, which makes it a nice all-purpose device for running POS software. Because it is dual purpose, and so lightweight (measuring 2. 13" high x 2. 28" wide x 4. 33" deep) the ID reader is popular for mounting, connecting to Desktop computers, and using to cobble together machines that need multiple capabilities, or mounting in-vehicle, which makes it popular for law enforcement. The ID reader has two attachment points (Two #4-40 thread screw holes) on the bottom of the device and can be connected via the accessory CN8436 (Molex RS-232 serial port to USB-A) data cable. Additional E-Seek M260 Specs The ID scanner includes a 3 track MagStripe reader (ANSI, ISO, CDL, AAMVA) for quickly parsing data found on any government issued drivers license.

Summary of Q3 2023 legislation relating to ID scanning or identity verification Fall 2023 remains quiet as many state legislatures have concluded their 2023 general sessions. A few others continue to be active, with new bills being introduced in several states that either allow legislation to be carried-over, or that meet in continuous session.   Alcoholic Beverages A Pennsylvania bill to require amusement parks to utilize a transaction scan device to verify the age of an individual who purchases alcoholic beverages passed the House and was referred to committee in the Senate. Data Security In New York, a proposed bill to enact the New York Privacy Act passed the Senate and was referred to committee in the Assembly. A similar bill was signed into law in Delaware on September 12, 2023.

But what exactly is it? In short its a method to ensure compliance for minors. Age gating, also known as age verification or age restriction, is a mechanism used to restrict access to certain content or services based on the user's age. It is often employed to comply with legal regulations, protect minors from age-inappropriate content, and ensure responsible access to specific products or services. Age gating and age verification laws have been growing in popularity, especially for access to adult content and for creation of social media accounts. How does age gating work? Age gating typically works by placing an interstitial page on the homepage of the site. Typically the user clicks that they are over 21, or over 18, and the user is then allowed to enter the website. This is required for sites which sell liquor or cannabis products and gaming sites, but typically a simple click is sufficient to meet the regulations in their industry. This type of age gate is obviously very easy for minors to bypass as it does not require any proof that they are above the legal age to purchase. However, it is inexpensive to implement and adds almost no friction to the interaction process. What is a date-of-birth age gate? Some age gates require that the user enter in their full date of birth. This is typically due to compliance with the Stop Tobacco Access to Kids Enforcement Act — which requires sellers to verify the date of birth, name, and address provided by the customer against database records. What types of businesses require age gating?

Selfie identity verification, also known as facial recognition, face matching, or biometric authentication, is technology that uses a person's facial features to confirm their identity. The selfie, in particular, has rapidly grown in popularity due to the ubiquity of mobile phones with high-resolution cameras. Selfie face matching is commonly used in many applications, such as: Online account opening Digital loan or line-of-credit applications Customer onboarding Access control in lieu of passwords or OTP Account recovery Identity authentication for government benefits The process typically involves capturing a selfie or live video of a person's face and comparing it to a stored reference image, which can be an official ID photo or a previously recorded selfie image. It is sometimes called a selfie check. Verification selfie with ID card checks is available inside our digital identity verification engine (DIVE) API. How do you protect against fraud in selfie verification? There are multiple, important lines of defense against fraud in the selfie process.

So your ID scanning software flagged an ID as fake. What do you do now? When can a server seize a fake ID? When a business identifies a fake ID, the first and most crucial step is to deny entry or service to the individual presenting the fraudulent identification. Politely and discreetly inform the patron that their ID appears to be fake or invalid, and that they cannot be accommodated. It is essential to handle the situation with professionalism and courtesy to avoid potential confrontations or conflicts. Businesses should have a clear and consistent policy in place for handling such incidents, ensuring that all staff members are aware of the protocol. However, whether or not a business, or employee of that business should seize the fake ID depends on state regulations. Can a bartender or security guard legally take your ID? It depends. See our list of state-by-state regulations below. What if the individual maintains that their ID is real? Depending on what type of software you use, you may have opportunities to escalate the examination of the ID. ID authentication can perform a deeper check on the ID, looking at holograms and watermarks to provide confidence in its legitimacy. If an ID is being flagged by a handheld ID scanner you may want to run it through your authentication station to see if the ID passes. Third party checks can also provide an additional layer of security.

Introduction Underage individuals are becoming more savvy to the efforts of bars, nightclubs, and dispensaries to detect their fake identification. They are now buying from foreign suppliers who guarantee IDs that scan at the door of a nightclub. Of 14,000 fake IDs seized in 2020, 97% of those were shipped from either China or Hong Kong. Sophisticated fake IDs represent a risk to businesses who may unknowingly serve minors, even with stringent manual age verification processes in place. In this report, we’ll explore the effect of fake ID use on both the minors who are gaining access to age restricted products, as well as the risks to businesses who lack adequate protections to limit their exposure to individuals using fake IDs. We’ll also dive into never-before-seen data that quantifies the epidemic of fake ID usage. How common are fake IDs? Use of fake IDs has increased significantly over the past 30 years. The National Library of Medicine performed a study of 1,454 underage alcohol consumers. Of this cross-section: ● 583 or 40. 1% own or have owned a fake ID. 560 (38. 5%) have used a fake ID at a bar. ● 460 (27. 8%) have used the ID to purchase alcohol at a store. Ownership of fake IDs peaked during students’ third year of college, with 39% of third-year students owning false credentials of some kind. And usage spikes heavily as men and women approach 21%. Only 7% of high schoolers reported owning a fake ID, while 69% of... --- > Overview of issues with FL drivers licenses issued from 2017-2023 with blurry barcode start patterns, resulting in scanning difficulties. - Published: 2023-10-20 - Modified: 2024-08-05 - URL: https://idscan.net/blog/why-some-florida-drivers-licenses-wont-scan/ - Categories: Driver's License & IDs - States: Florida Overview of issues with Florida drivers licenses issued from 2017-2023 with blurry barcode start patterns, resulting in scanning difficulties. If you are a Florida-based business, or a business that regularly encounters a large number of Florida drivers licenses, you may have noticed that you often have trouble scanning these documents. At IDScan. net we scan millions of IDs each week across our products, and such, have had time to investigate the persistent issue of Florida IDs. The 2D barcode (PDF417) is the symbology on the back of the ID that is scanned by an ID scanner. It contains all of the information on the front of the ID but in a format that can be instantly read and parsed by ID scanning software. Tampering with or obscuring the 2D barcode impedes its readability. Printing issues or ID design issues can also create barcode scanning difficulties, such as the barcode formatting issue we see on the 2016-2020 Colorado drivers licenses. Why won’t Florida IDs scan? Florida IDs issued later than 2017 have printing issues in the barcode area that prevent them from being properly read by ID scanners. At the start of every 2D barcode is an area that consists of one large vertical line, and three smaller lines. It is commonly called the “start pattern” or “start zone. ” This area indicates to the ID scanner where the barcode is and when to start reading and parsing data. On an AAMVA-compliant ID this area is clean and crisp. Example of a correctly formatted 2D barcode However, on Florida IDs, we see that the start zone is often blurry and the lines... --- > Top identity verification trends for 2024 - digital IDs, eCommerce age verification legislation, and growing sophistication of fake IDs. - Published: 2023-10-05 - Modified: 2023-11-30 - URL: https://idscan.net/blog/5-game-changing-identity-verification-trends-for-2024/ - Categories: Identity Verification Technology, Industry News Top identity verification trends for 2024 - digital IDs, eCommerce age verification legislation, and growing sophistication of fake IDs.

Many businesses think they are performing age verification, when the hardware and software they are using is not actually equipped to detect suspicious IDs. More than 46% of college students say they’ve used a fake ID to get past age restrictions. And today’s fake IDs can be imperceptible to the naked eye. So what level of ID verification are you performing at your business? Factors Hardware capabilities Sophistication of 2D barcode parsing algorithm Breadth of IDs you need to verify on a daily basis Third party integrations Staff training What is ID scanning? ID Scanning simply means an ID was digitally scanned. It does not necessarily include any level of verification or authentication. In many cases the scanning software is simply calculating if the birth and expiration dates indicate if a given individual is of age, and that their ID is not expired, but no security features are embedded in the software. What is ID validation? ID validation performs a basic parsing of the barcode or MRZ data, and checks for a match between the data stored in the barcode, and the data on the front of the ID.   At IDScan. net we also perform 134 checks on the 2D barcode, at this stage. These are essentially what could be called an “easter egg check. ” Most ID formats have some intentional quirks or known consistencies.

State IDs come in all different varieties since the design on the front of the ID is open to artistic expression by each state, so how do you know if it is real or fake? While the front of the ID is generally customized to include state specific design features like the state bird or state flower, it is important to have standardized, built in security features to help businesses differentiate between real and fake IDs. Most states try to follow the guidelines from either the ICAO or AAMVA for where specific security features should be placed on the respective state ID. Here are some of the most common security features on state IDs. Holograms Holograms are one of the most common security features seen on all state IDs. The designs are often unique to the state, but can easily help business owners due to their unique three-dimensional effects that can easily be seen without using any special technology. This is because the light is refracted off the nano-structures, creating an easy to see design. While these holographic security features can be seen with a naked eye, for authentication purposes, businesses would benefit from employing the use of an M500, or similar product. The M500 runs a series of light checks, including UV, IR, and white light checks. These light checks are run against VeriScan’s known database of security features, and are compared at microscopic level to ensure the features match, thus authenticating the ID.

If you’re using an ID scanner, you’ve probably encountered this awkward interaction: You scan the customer’s ID The ID scanning software flags the ID as fake You tell the customer that they cannot enter with a fake ID The customer says “What? ! My ID is real. ” There’s nothing worse than a legitimate ID flagged as fake. And it can be confusing when you rely heavily on powerful software to do most of your ID verification for you.   Before we begin, we want to remind you that the most common reason an ID is flagged is fake is... well, because it’s fake. And fraudsters will use every excuse in the book to convince you that your ID scanning software is wrong. It usually isn’t. But every so often, there is a legitimate false positive. Here are the most common reasons why an ID might be flagged as fake, and what you can do about it. 1.  The ID is dirty ID scanners are only as good as their cameras. If key elements of the barcode are obscured, you will not be able to scan the ID, even using a handheld ID scanner. If you are using a sensitive ID authentication device, then even a small amount of dirt may impact the scanner’s ability to view the holograms and watermarks that the software uses to determine if the ID is legitimate.   We recommend using cleaner, or a wipe such as a Clorox wipe to clean off the ID and... --- --- ## Press Releases > According to analysis of more than 40 million ID scans nationwide, Independence Day sees a 25-percent spike in underage patrons. - Published: 2025-07-01 - Modified: 2025-07-02 - URL: https://idscan.net/press-release/the-increasing-threat-of-fake-ids-around-independence-day/ - Categories: Bars & Nightclubs, Hospitality According to analysis of more than 40 million ID scans nationwide, Independence Day sees a 25-percent spike in underage patrons.

As fraud tactics become more advanced, businesses are turning to artificial intelligence to safeguard their operations and their customers. One of the most pressing concerns today is the use of fake and synthetic identities in self-checkout (SCO) fraud, buy online, pick up in store (BOPIS) scams, and organized retail crime (ORC). These counterfeit credentials are being used to exploit loopholes in checkout processes, especially where verification methods are minimal or in some cases nonexistent. According to IDScan. net’s 2024 Fake ID Report, over one million fake IDs were flagged using their VeriScan platform last year, highlighting both the scale of the issue and the need for more advanced, real-time detection capabilities.

Logistics and supply chain operations are big business, and where big business exists, opportunistic threats are quick to emerge. For supply chains and logistics firms, these threats have become so widespread that cargo theft is expected to reach record levels in the United States, with estimated losses to the U. S. economy exceeding $35 billion annually. This latest surge is far from a new trend, as CargoNet reported a 14% year-over-year increase in theft during Q3 2024, signaling an issue that shows no signs of slowing down. It’s time for action to be taken. Establishing the cause of cargo theft  The alarming increase in cargo theft is not limited to specific regions or industries – incidents of theft are widespread, affecting everything from consumer electronics and pharmaceuticals to food and beverage shipments. High-value items are especially attractive to organized criminal networks, which continue to become more sophisticated in their methods, largely fueled by advancements in technology such as generative AI which criminals are using to create false identities or forge documents. It is also becoming increasingly more difficult and costly for authorities to track and recover stolen goods, and this combination has led to an exponential increase in cargo theft.

Businesses have steadily understood the evolving challenges fake IDs & deepfakes present AI is changing the face of identity fraud. Or at least how that face is generated. The quality of fraudulent IDs has always varied – from obvious fakes, easily caught by the naked eye, to high-quality fake IDs, only detectable with specialized authentication hardware and software. Cheaper production methods, foreign imports, and darkweb knowledge-sharing between fraudsters are increasing the accessibility and sophistication of fake identity documents and their ability to be used in complex identity fraud scams. While the sheer impact of identity fraud-related costs is difficult to assess in its entirety, Javelin Research from 2021 suggests the figure is upwards of $50 billion per year for US businesses. However, with businesses losing an average of 5% of their revenue as a direct result of fraud, the true cost is far, far greater. Only by adapting to the latest fraud methods, many driven by AI, can businesses stem these losses.

Retail ID fraud has risen 22. 7 percent since December 2024, threatening even the most resilient retail brands, according to risk data processed via ID verifications throughout all of IDScan. net’s retail customers. The threat of ID fraud is ever present, always probing defenses for vulnerabilities, evolving via fraudsters’ continuous enhancements to fake identities. The prevalence of ID fraud attempts means that to protect revenue, reduce shrinkage, and safeguard valuable customers, it is no longer an option for retailers to ignore the anti-fraud solutions available to them. Types of retail ID fraud Retailers are facing growing threats from fake and synthetic IDs, leading to chargebacks, fines, and stolen goods. As fraud methods diversify and become more sophisticated, unprepared businesses are left vulnerable. Specifically, return fraud and fake identities carry the most considerable risk, both from financial and reputational standpoints. Return fraud comes in many shapes and sizes, with the ultimate aim of receiving an item or service without paying for it, or the cash it was worth. An individual committing return fraud usually seeks goods for themselves or acquaintances, however, for highly organized criminal gangs, return fraud is used to fence items. Successfully stopping return fraud brings consistency to revenue, reduces shrinkage, and creates a more consistent, satisfying experience for legitimate customers.

Strictly speaking, the identity is the entity, while credentials are proof of the identity. In practice, there is little distinction between the two terms and their use, and we will use them indiscriminately in our discussion here. The foundational purpose of security is to ensure that only authorized and authenticated identities should access computers, their functions and their data. It is not a stretch to suggest that secure computing is based on secure identities, and that failure to secure identities is the root cause of most computer compromise. “In 2025, identity will remain both a cornerstone of security and one of its biggest vulnerabilities,” says Avery Pennarun, CEO at Tailscale. “Whether we’re talking about human users or machine identities, the complexity of managing them securely is increasing at an unprecedented pace. ” Read more on Security Week. --- > High-quality imposter images and videos are on the rise, but so are preventative steps emerging just as more states switch to digital IDs. - Published: 2025-01-13 - Modified: 2025-06-17 - URL: https://idscan.net/press-release/customers-want-extra-security-that-can-stop-fraud-deepfakes/ - Categories: ID Fraud Prevention High-quality imposter images and videos are on the rise, but so are preventative steps emerging just as more states switch to digital IDs.

NEW ORLEANS, LA, UNITED STATES, October 15, 2024 -- After analyzing more than 9,000,000 IDs verified on behalf of casino partners, AI-powered identity tech company IDScan. net has published findings from their 2024 Casino ID Fraud Special Report. The report comes after several casinos received six-figure fines for allowing underage gambling and failing to catch fake IDs. Casinos in Virginia, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey were among those who had public incidents in the past twelve months, with several casinos racking up multiple offenses. Casinos around the country use IDScan. net’s VeriScan age verification and visitor management system to verify IDs and ensure guests are of legal age while drinking or gambling on-site. Some casinos, such as Las Vegas Circa, verify age at the door to maintain an adults-only property, while others spot-check on the casino floor, or verify only at the cage at the time of cash out.

National leader looks to increase accessibility, adoption, to protect against rapidly rising synthetic identity fraud September 10, 2024 (New Orleans, Louisiana) - IDScan. net, a leading provider of identity verification technology solutions, and the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators (AAMVA) are working together to help reduce synthetic identity fraud in multiple industries by offering businesses the ability to rapidly query DMV data through AAMVA’s Driver License Data Verification (DLDV) service.   Synthetic identity fraud differs from regular fraud in that it involves the creation of a completely new identity by combining real and fake information, rather than simply stealing or using someone else's existing identity. In a typical fraud scenario, a criminal might use stolen or illegally obtained personal information to impersonate a real individual.   In synthetic identity fraud, the fraudster fabricates an entirely new identity by blending authentic data—such as a real Social Security number—with fictitious details like a made-up name or birthdate. This makes synthetic identity fraud more difficult to detect and often allows criminals to exploit systems for longer periods before being discovered. Verification checks to trusted sources such as DMV data are the ideal method for detection of synthetic identity fraud, since DLDV is able to verify whether the data points on the ID match jurisdictional records. DLDV service is available inside both of IDScan. net’s identity verification products - VeriScan and DIVE. The call to DLDV can be triggered after the scan of every ID, or on-demand for high risk transactions.

IDScan. net’s identity verification tools include more than 200 AI-powered checks to confirm the legitimacy of an ID or drivers license - these include checks on the barcode format, the ID template, and front/back crossmatch checks, as well as calls to third party databases. With this latest update, DIVE will get a huge boost in its ability to detect IDs which have been altered, either physically or digitally. Physical tampering includes replacing or manipulating the data or photo on the ID. In some cases, this can be as unsophisticated as taping a different photo onto a stolen ID, or using a sharpie to change information such as name, date of birth, or ID number.

There's a good chance you're reading this article on your mobile device while you're taking a quick break from work, cleaning or waiting for the kids to get out of school. For most people, your phone is never more than two feet away from you at any time. When we leave the house we do the wallet/purse, keys and phone check, every time. In the near future, you will be able to eliminate the wallet/purse and key portion of that check. It'll be down to only a phone check. Your financial cards are in your phone's wallet, newer cars are able to detect your phone and very soon you'll be able to have your driver license there too. No more large annoying bags or bulky wallets... just your phone. Now, because the technology is there, doesn't mean you'll have to get the digital ID. The technology will work as another tool for you to use. In 2020, Governor Mark Gordon signed a bill authorizing digital driver's licenses here in Wyoming. When he signed the bill, it put the ball in motion to take the next step of putting your driver's license on your phone. At that point of time, it was said it would take 2 to 5 years for the digital license to be available. If you look at the calendar, we're working on year number 4.

According to IDScan. net, there's been a massive uptick in the number of fake IDs: a 20% spike in just five years. The outlet reported that in 2020 in Cincinnati alone a whopping 14,000 false identification cards were discovered, with 97% of them hailing from either China or Hong Kong. Throngs of youngsters have been caught and in some instances even arrested for being caught with a fake ID, which they usually present when they're trying to get into a bar or a club before they've hit their 21st birthday. But there have also been instances were bar/restaurant staff members wrongly accused guests of having a fake ID, which they've either bent, confiscated, or cut in half despite being the genuine article. The Armed Green (@armedgreen) TikTok account uploaded footage of the incident in a viral clip that's garnered over 1 million likes on the popular social media platform. The video starts with the bartender yelling at customers telling one customer that they are too young looking to have ever served in Afghanistan and Iraq and that they were going to call on of their friends who they know, for a fact, served. The bartender then holds up the customer's ID and declares that it's "fake" before bending the card and cursing them out, telling the guy to "get the f--- out of here.

See which states actively have digital driver's licenses. Google Wallet on Android is finally getting ready for your digital driver's license and other US state IDs. Google says the feature is rolling out this month, and it will slowly start bringing states online this year. Of course, your state has to be one of the few that actually supports digital IDs. Google says Maryland residents can use the feature right now and that "in the coming months, residents of Arizona, Colorado and Georgia will join them. " The road to digital driver's license support has been a long one, with the "Identity Credential API" landing in Android 11 in 2020. Since then, it has technically been possible for states to make their own ID app. Now Google Wallet, Google's re-re-reboot of its payment app, is providing a first-party way to store an ID on your phone. Some parts of the Identity Credential API landed in Google Play Services (Google's version-agnostic brick of APIs), so Wallet supports digital IDs going back to Android 8. 0, which covers about 90 percent of Android devices. Maryland has supported Digital IDs on iOS for a while, which gives us an idea of how this will work. An NFC transfer is enough to beam your credentials to someone, where you can just tap against a special NFC ID terminal and confirm the transfer with your fingerprint. Wallet has an NFC option, along with a "Show code" option that will show the traditional driver's license barcode.

Historic Swiss casino The Grand Casino Luzern, built in 1882, has replaced manual ID checks for its online offering by partnering with ID verification provider Regula. The casino had traditionally had the ID cards checked manually by its staff, but found the process “extremely time-consuming and prone to human error. ” The Regula Document Reader SDK automates ID document reading and verification. The software identifies identity document type, finds the data fields, and checks that they are relevant and contain valid information for the particular type of ID in question, aiming to stamp out identity fraud. Using fake ID at a casino, online or in-person, isn’t exactly a rare occurrence either, at least according to new research on the topic of fake ID’s released by IDScan. According to the research, 0. 1% to 0. 4% of the IDs scanned at U. S. -based casinos showed signs of being fake. However, this is significantly less than the number of young people using fake IDs to get into nightclubs, which stands at between 0. 7% and 2%, and the proportion using fake IDs for cannabis dispensaries, which rises to between 2% to 5%. The research also touched on where the average fake ID is most likely to fall short. As per IDScan’s findings, weight is the physical attribute where fake IDs are most likely to not match their subject, doing so in 40% of cases.

This year's show once again featured the "Imagination Way" interactive gallery that greeted attendees at the entrance to the main show floor, demonstrating how innovations can service unique environments such as transit centers, multi-family/campus housing, senior living/healthcare and lodging and hospitality. Fastcorp LLC, a provider of robotic vending technology, presented its DIVI (Dream It Vend It) machine for age restricted products that uses IDScan. net's age and identity verification technology. Age-restricted products include alcoholic beverages, CBD and cannabis products, tobacco, vaping products and scratch tickets. The machine has a 43-inch touchscreen and can hold up to 450 individually packaged cannabis products. Fastcorp's Vend Block technology allows the machine to block vending up to four times a day, seven days a week to ensure control of regulated products. The machine features a security camera, a standard keypad option, and can accept credit card, Apple Pay and Google Wallet payments.

We monitored ID scans across our entire customer base for one month, amounting to more than 8,000,000 scanned IDs. The results, published in the inaugural IDScan. net Fake ID Report were shocking.   Although across all industries, roughly 0. 52% of IDs were flagged as suspicious, amongst dispensaries, that number climbed to between 2% and 5%.   Broadly, studies have shown that dispensaries largely perform some type of age verification, there is no standard for exactly what the age verification process must entail. Only three states require ID scanning, so for the rest of the cannabis retail market, visual inspection of ID meets regulatory thresholds.  But is it enough when as many as 1 in 20 customers at busy cannabis retailers could be using fraudulent identification?   Why age verification matters for dispensaries Fines and penalties for failing to properly verify age are simply much more expensive and devastating for cannabis businesses than for other types of age-restricted businesses such as casinos or bars. Because cannabis remains federally illegal, and because of cultural perceptions around cannabis consumption, regulatory bodies and state legislatures have created a much more punitive regulatory environment which provides little room for retailer error when it comes to age verification.   A few state laws highlight the stark difference in penalties for underage sales of alcohol and underage sales of cannabis.   First Offense for Alcohol SalesFirst Offense for Cannabis SalesNew Jersey$1,000 fine$500,000Vermont$100 fine$15,000Nevada$1000 fine$25,000 If each dispensary is serving just 100 customers every 24 hours, that represents between 2 and 5... --- > IDScan.net has completed its first ever analysis of anonymized data across all users of the VeriScan platform in their 2023 Fake ID Report. - Published: 2023-05-11 - Modified: 2024-11-14 - URL: https://idscan.net/press-release/idscan-net-releases-inaugural-fake-id-report/ - Categories: ID Fraud, Industry News IDScan.net has completed its first ever analysis of anonymized data across all users of the VeriScan platform in their 2023 Fake ID Report. IDScan. net has completed its first ever analysis of anonymized data across all users of the VeriScan ID scanning and visitor management platform in their 2023 Fake ID Report. The results highlight the frequency of fake ID usage across a variety of business types, as well as key statistics related to usage of fake IDs by minors. “Most age restricted businesses know fake IDs are a problem, but it is hard to quantify, especially with the growing sophistication of fakes. ” Jillian Kossman, VP of Marketing Key data related to fake ID usage: In a given month or week, 0. 52% of IDs presented for inspection, across all industry verticals, are fraudulent, equating to roughly 1 in 200 customers. Between 2-5% of IDs presented at dispensaries show indications of being fraudulent. 69% of college students have owned or used a fake ID. Students who participate in Greek life on campus are substantially over-represented in this number. While hair color and eye color are typically correct, 36% of fake IDs do not match the state of the individual’s legitimate ID. More than 50% of fake IDs have barcode anomalies which can be caught using 2D barcode security. The 17-page report also details some of 2022’s most famous civil and criminal cases related to fake ID usage, including the shutdown of a Baton Rouge bar after the death of 19-year-old LSU student Madison Brooks who was drinking using a fake ID.

The shift towards mobile wallets and hands free solutions, accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic, has led to a sea of change in how consumers think about their wallet. Tools such as ApplePay and Venmo have eliminated the need to carry cash, or even credit cards. Many state law enforcement agencies are accepting proof of insurance from a phone. And now, jurisdictions are rapidly rolling out the mobile driver’s license (mDL) as a companion to physical, printed IDs. Louisiana was the first state to launch a digital ID, LA Wallet, in 2018. But since then, more than 15 other states have launched, or announced intentions to launch, their own mobile ID. Consumer searches for terms like “electronic drivers license” and “drivers license on phone” have risen up to 400% since 2017 according to Google Trends.   “The desire for age and identity verification software which can accept mobile IDs has risen substantially in just the last year. Businesses are challenged with finding elegant solutions that can authenticate physical identity documents and read digital credentials from multiple jurisdictions, given the lack of a federal standard. IDScan. net CTO, Andrey Stanovnov Because there is no federal standard for digital IDs, each state is free to utilize a solution of their choice.

French conglomerate and identity technology giant Thales has joined forces with IDScan. net to develop products aimed at tackling fraud and offenses using fake ID, particularly concerning underage drinking in the U. S. The partnership was unveiled by New Orleans-based IDScan. net, which says it will bring together Thales’s identity document scanners and its own VeriScan Authentication software to check IDs against hologram and watermark libraries. At the time of writing, the firms have collaborated on two separate ID scanners based on the Thales CR5400 and AT10K models. The devices come with VeriScan already integrated and support ID verification features, as well as ID information parsing into a visitor management system to help security teams manage ban lists and prevent chargebacks. From a hardware standpoint, the CR5400 and AT10K devices can perform UV/IR/white light scanning, as well as rapid six-image capture to ensure scanned IDs can be read correctly by VeriScan. According to the firms, the age verification scanners aim to fill a technical gap created by the lack of identification technologies for fake ID, particularly in the light of many fake IDs being sophisticated and typically passing a visual inspection and barcode scan checks. “Most bars and nightclubs think any scanning of an ID is catching fakes, but the reality is most ID scanning apps are just verifying age; they don’t catch any fake IDs at all,” comments IDScan. net CEO Terry Slattery. “Even companies with more sophisticated tech simply can’t do it without specialty hardware. ” The executive adds he believes the partnership... --- > Identity tech company, IDScan.net expands its workforce in key roles, announcing three new hires in key positions, rapid team growth. - Published: 2023-03-07 - Modified: 2024-10-14 - URL: https://idscan.net/press-release/idscan-net-expands-its-workforce-in-key-roles/ - Categories: Company Updates Identity tech company, IDScan.net expands its workforce in key roles, announcing three new hires in key positions, rapid team growth.

The challenge The WM Phoenix Open is known for iconic crowds and an enthusiastic atmosphere. For the 2025 event, the team wanted to keep the party going while emphasizing safety and security. Compliance and reducing the risk of underage drinking were top priorities since the event is a popular weekend event for college students. Traditional, visual ID checks are slow, clunky, and error-prone, creating bottlenecks and security risks. Additionally, modern fake IDs have become more sophisticated and harder to detect without AI-powered technology. Use of fake IDs has become widespread at large, public events. The solution: Ronin POS & VeriScan Ronin POS and VeriScan teamed up to create a comprehensive age verification system across the golf course. Strategically placed ID scanning stations ensured attendees could easily verify their age without disrupting the event flow. Ronin's tablet cases and external battery packs provided cable-free operation and portability for staff, augmented with handheld ID scanners. The system was designed to be user-friendly, minimizing staff training and ensuring a smooth attendee experience. “We have very experienced and skilled hospitality staff in Arizona, but every time you have a major event attended by a large number of underage partygoers, bartenders and servers can get nervous.

BoxxTech uses IDScan.net to authenticate IDs and verify identity. BoxxTech is a groundbreaking age-verifying vending machine company, headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona. In 2020, the founders of BoxxTech decided they wanted a way to serve alcohol in vending machines, specifically for events and within the hospitality sector. Vending machines with beer, wine, canned cocktails, and seltzers could take the strain off of bartenders and staff while increasing customer satisfaction and revenue. The challenge of selling alcohol in vending machines In order to sell alcohol, or any age restricted product, in a vending machine, a specific technological setup is required. BoxxTech’s founder knew they needed a system that was efficient, reliable, and secure to create a successful product. While they had implemented an age estimation system that could approve sales if the patron was older than a set threshold, they needed a system that could authenticate IDs and verify identity in cases where the age estimation was not sufficient.

Hempie’s, a hemp dispensary with 5 locations in North Carolina, takes pride in being a leader within the hemp industry – not just by offering high-quality hemp products but also by adopting cutting-edge technology to enhance operations. In the ever-evolving landscape of the hemp industry, staying ahead of regulations and ensuring the safety and security of their community is paramount. The problem Hempie's was facing a few primary issues that caused them to look into ID scanning technology: regulatory compliance, flagging fake IDs, and online sales. As the hemp industry grows, so does the complexity of regulations surrounding it, and Hempie's needed to ensure that all transactions were being conducted legally and safely in compliance with North Carolina laws. With the increasing sophistication of fraudulent activities and underage purchases, Hempie's team realized that relying solely on manual ID checks was no longer sufficient. Many newer fake IDs are not detectable with the eye, and stolen credit cards have become more prevalent. This poses significant risks to businesses like Hempie’s. They recognized the need for an advanced, reliable solution to address these challenges head-on and started evaluating vendors. The solution: VeriScan for dispensary ID verification Hempie's chose to implement VeriScan’s fast, accurate, and secure on-premises ID scanning solution to ensure they maintain compliance and catch fake IDs prior to sale, and our digital identity verification platform to enable age verification for online sales.

Allegheny Casualty Company has provided innovative and advanced surety solutions since 1936. They had been using ID verification phone apps or visually inspecting IDs, but when they experienced increased fraud in 2023, they sought out a new identity verification solution. The challenge: Increased broker and claimant fraud Leaders at Allegheny Casualty Company wanted to efficiently and securely verify the identities of brokers and claimants to deter fraud. The common fraud tactics they were experiencing included: Fraudsters posing as freight brokers to apply for bonds, then using Allegheny’s bond to legitimize them to steal loads/funds from suppliers and truckers in the industries Fraudulent claimants filing false claims on bonds to receive payouts from Allegheny The price tag on each fraud instance not only included the money lost but also required that they hire additional full-time employees solely to help mitigate this fraud. The solution: Identity verification for fraud prevention Allegheny Casualty Company chose to implement VeriScan’s digital identity verification platform in order to verify applicants and claimants. At the beginning of the underwriting process or a claims investigation, Allegheny triggers an identity verification request. This request is sent via text message and takes the user about 10 seconds to complete.

We spoke with four hotels across the US to hear how ID scanning is helping streamline their hospitality business. From densely-populated urban locations, cruise ship ports and tourist points of interest, and rural B&B-style lodging, here's how easy ID verification has improved their operations. While we offer a wide range of solutions for the hospitality industry, most of our hotel customers use ParseLink data capture software with a compatible ID scanner during their check-in process. The users at the four hotels we spoke with, Green Tortoise Hostel, Super 8, Rodeway Inn, and Holiday Motel, each said that ID scanning has sped up the guest check-in process, improving customer experience and reducing labor time, and has helped fight fraudulent chargebacks. Integrating ID scanning with hotel PMS platforms Of the four hotels we spoke with, they were using three different PMS/CRS platforms. Fortunately, our ID scanning solutions are compatible with any existing hospitality management software, so there were no interruptions to processes or need for extra implementations. Improving slow, manual hotel check-in processes Prior to implementing ID scanning, these hotels were wasting valuable customer and employee time with manual ID review. Employees were: Manually typing guest information from guest IDs and passports, attempting to read the small print and find where information was located on out-of-state IDs Potentially mistyping information, entering inaccurate data into guest folios Scanning images of IDs and passports and uploading into the PMS or CRS For three of the four hotels we spoke to, ensuring guest data was... --- > Niche online dating site, MeetKinksters, uses IDScan.net digital identity verification technology liveness checks to prevent catfishing. - Published: 2024-03-04 - Modified: 2024-03-04 - URL: https://idscan.net/case-study/meet-kinksters-uses-dive-liveness-checks-to-help-prevent-catfishing/ - Categories: Identity Verification Technology The search for love has now embraced the digital realm. This has transformed how we connect and create new opportunities for relationships that might never have existed otherwise. While we often just accept that every swipe and message may carry its risks—scams, fraud, and the infamous 'catfishing'—these concerns are outweighed by the vast potential for love. Therefore, embracing digital romance comes with a compromise: acknowledging these dangers whilst simultaneously engaging in a collective effort to mitigate them. This not only changes the narrative around online dating but also enriches the experience, ensuring that the journey toward finding love remains both safe and hopeful. Digital identity verification for online dating sites At IDScan. net, we are leaders in AI-powered identity verification technology, and we are proud to collaborate with platforms like Meet Kinksters, a unique player in the US dating app scene, to address these risks head-on.

Fake IDs have become more sophisticated than ever and most dealerships are not proactively equipped to prevent this type of fraud. ID scanners at the dealership can help verify identity before test drives, but McCluskey Automotive was looking for a solution that would eliminate their need to involve police and repossession agencies when cars were stolen off the lot. The team implemented DIVE, which sends an identity verification request to prospects at the time they schedule a test drive. The simple process validates their ID remotely, and uses facial recognition to match the person holding the phone to the ID photo. It then returns a successful verification to the McCluskey team inside the portal, which allows them to schedule the test drive with complete confidence. "Scammers are always finding new ways to defraud dealerships. It is usually too late when you find out, but with DIVE we’re able to verify identity in advance, giving us greater peace of mind that each person on our lot is a legitimate potential customer.

Although casino visitors must be 21 to gamble, casinos do not typically deny entry to underage guests. So Circa’s approach - casino age verification at the point of entry - was novel. The traditional approach to casino ID scanning Traditionally, casinos approach only guests who look under-21 to ask for ID. This is done by a dealer or bartender who inspects the ID manually.   The only additional safeguard is for winnings that require a W2-G, when a guest will be ID’d at the cage to collect their payout.   The Circa way In order to ensure an adults-only property, and remove ID-checking responsibilities from untrained staff, Circa implemented ID scanning at their three entrances using Panasonic Toughbook FZN1 Scanners and VeriScan Enterprise software.

A marketing department with the Chevrolet Division of the General Motors Corporation developed a program to collect and assess basic marketing information from a random group of potential customers. The desire was to contact thousands of individuals in public areas and ask them a few simple but important questions about their history and knowledge of Chevrolet motor vehicles and their potential purchase of a vehicle in the near future. They were also questioned about their interest in being contacted by a representative of Chevrolet. The Challenge This project posed several key challenges to the Chevy marketing team. The interviewee did not want to spend a lot of time answering questions, so the collection process had to be fast The interviewer needed a simple and fast way to collect the information with minimal training The information collected needed to be accurate The collection system needed to be portable Needed a way to automate data entry The information needed to be available for download to a format that could later be uploaded into a larger Chevrolet database Software Solution Chevrolet wanted to capture basic identification information about the interviewee and additional information like email address and phone number. Chevrolet also wanted to ask five questions about the interviewee’s previous experience and knowledge of Chevrolet.   For this project, Chevrolet chose to use a tablet PC, since it was portable and very flexible.

Introduction Driver license suspension and revocation are countermeasures intended to reduce the driving risk posed by problem drivers. In California, licensees can have their driving privilege suspended or revoked (SR) for various reasons related directly (e. g. , driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs ), or indirectly (e. g. , failure to carry vehicle liability insurance) to traffic safety, and also for non-driving related behaviors (e. g. , failure to pay court judgments). Compared to validly-licensed California drivers, those under suspension or revocation for any reason have elevated crash and traffic conviction rates and are about three times more likely to be involved in crashes (Gebers & DeYoung, 2002) and to cause a fatal crash (Brar, 2012). Recent DMV estimates indicate that approximately 1. 3 million licensees are SR at any given time, representing about 4% of licensed California drivers. Suspension and revocation have consistently been shown to be effective interventions for reducing traffic violations and crashes (Masten & Peck, 2004; Wagenaar & Maldonado-Molina, 2007) and DUI recidivism (Rogers, 1997; Tashima & Marelich, 1989). Driving while under suspension or revocation is a misdemeanor (California Vehicle Code §14601), as is having physical possession of a SR license (CVC §14610). Any vehicle driven by a driver under suspension or revocation is subject to impoundment (CVC §14602. 6), and, if the driver has prior convictions for driving while SR and owns the vehicle, forfeiture (CVC §14607. 6). Vehicle impoundment has also been found to be a specific deterrence for subsequent traffic... --- > United Property Management uses ID scanning software, ParseLink, to automate data entry for lessees and rental applicants. - Published: 2012-06-23 - Modified: 2024-10-21 - URL: https://idscan.net/case-study/united-property-addresses-new-lessee-enrollment-with-id-scanning/ - Categories: Data Automation United Property Management uses ID scanning software, ParseLink, to automate data entry for lessees and rental applicants.
