Stolen passports are often used by criminals to verify their identity. |
|
Checks the Bereavement Register and HALO File (the deceased fraud prevention system). |
Fraudulent activity is often carried out using the identity of a deceased person. |
|
Identifies if a person appears on any CIFAS documented Fraud Data and Cases. |
Any named person appearing on CIFAS list of fraud cases will be extremely high risk. |
|
Searches for County Court Judgements and BAI’s (Bankruptcies, Administrative Orders, Insolvencies). |
People appearing on any of these lists are proven to be higher risks in relation to possible identity fraud. |
|
Checks the HM Treasury Sanctions File (Terrorist File), Politically Exposed Persons (PEP) File and the OFAC Specially Designated Nationals File. |
This identifies terrorists, people who have been entrusted with a prominent public function (or a close relative or known associate of that person), and individuals, groups, and entities, such as terrorists and narcotics traffickers designated under programs that are not country-specific. People identified as being on any of these lists are deemed to be high risk. |
