How we help Accountants and CPAs with Red Flags Rule Programs?

Escalating identity theft and fraud schemes are leading to unprecedented revenue losses

 With the current harsh economic times upon us; accountants and CPA’s must be more vigilant than before. Thieves are more willing to go to great lengths to steal a person’s identity and perpetrate fraud. Approximately 31% of all ID thieves are able to produce a driver’s license that is able to pass visual scrutiny. This means, taking a copy of the driver’s license is not enough and more must be done. Approximately 5.3% or 1 in 438 Adult Americans experience fraud via a tax return filed fraudulently on their behalf using forged documents. Not only does that equate to millions of dollars of lost revenue to the IRS; but think of the outcome of your business. Imagine the headlines of your local newspaper reading “Local CPA Helps Fraudsters” and the ramifications to your business and reputation.

The IDSure Identity Verification Service is tailored to businesses in the accounting industry. We have over 40 years of combined experience in the Cybercrimes, Identity Fraud and Law Enforcement arena; and have dealt with CPA associations to develop a system that is quick and simple to use. The process is very unobtrusive and is based on the information that should be presented to the CPA before any work is done.

While the firm can train the staff to look for the signs of Identity Fraud, the single point of failure is taking the documents provided at face value.  Using IDSure removes the human error factor of detecting the red flags and reduces your exposure to fraud.

IDSure removes the doubt that the person you are dealing with is who they say they are.  The process is affordable and take about 30 seconds.  30 seconds for a piece of mind.
