Verify that callers are who they say they are.
Protect against fraud by confirming that a phone number is valid, active, and belongs to the caller. The C1 cloud connector for TransUnion’s TruContact provides number verification and identity management services designed to help businesses confirm that a phone number is valid, active, and truly belongs to (or is used by) the individual claiming it. This reduces fraud risk, improves onboarding and authentication workflows, and ensures businesses can reach their customers via the correct mobile channel.
Features
Real-Time Phone Number Verification
- Ownership Confirmation: Taps into reliable data sources—including mobile carrier records—to verify that a specific mobile number is associated with the individual’s name and account details.
- Active Status Checks: Determines if the mobile number is currently in service or has recently been deactivated, helping businesses avoid sending messages to inactive numbers or numbers that may have been recycled.
Fraud Prevention & Risk Insights
- Synthetic Identity & Account Takeover Detection: Ensures that a claimant’s identity details match the phone number on file, helping flag suspicious account activities or inconsistencies.
- Multi-Factor Authentication Enhancement: Mobile numbers are verified and can serve as a stronger factor for MFA (Multi-Factor Authentication) or one-time passcodes (OTPs), reducing the likelihood of fraud.
- Regulatory & Compliance Support: Accurate phone number identification can support Know Your Customer (KYC) and anti-fraud requirements within regulated industries.
