Users

All companies who are doubting the authenticity of a domain, can validate it after registration.

Checking domain names

Each registered user receives 20 free credits upon registration to check domain names on ID Fraud Check. If you are satisfied with our tool, you can buy additional credits. Credits can be purchased per package of 50 credits, for which you pay €25 (VAT excl.) up front.

Each check will result in a clear answer: the domain name pops up in our database or not. This database is continuously updated and only contains domain names that are actually used in real fraud (attempts).

If the domain name doesn’t appear in our database, a supplementary verification is automatically performed in order to check if the domain triggers any other warning signals. This will alert you when a domain name was registered or changed for less than 3 months before the consultation. If available, some technical details are displayed as well.

Reporting domain names

If you’ve received a suspicious e-mail, we ask you to report it on ID Fraud Check.

Even if the check does not result in any red flags, you could still be convinced that it’s a fake based on the e-mail you received. After you report it, i-Force will analyze the domain.

If the reported domain name indeed turns out to be fraudulent, you as a registered reporter will receive 10 free credits with which you can check additional domain names.

Partners
