Crush Fraud, Not Hearts: How CloseSimple’s Secure Portal Redefines Fraud Prevention

Written by Bill Svoboda | February 03, 2025

February is Fraud Prevention Month, and at CloseSimple, we’re leading the charge with tools designed to protect every transaction. Our client-facing portal integrates cutting-edge Fraud Prevention features like Early Scan, AI-Powered ID Verification, and Wiring Instruction Management, creating a seamless, secure closing experience that crushes fraud at every turn.

Early Scan: Proactive Protection Starts Here

Fraud doesn’t wait for a convenient moment—and neither should your prevention strategy. That’s why our Early Scan feature runs automated risk assessments the second you open a file, identifying potential fraud risks like seller impersonation without disrupting your workflow.

Here’s how Early Scan protects your transactions:

  • Instant Risk Visibility: Understand fraud risks in seconds, providing a 360-degree view of your seller population.
  • Automated ID Verification: High-risk sellers are flagged and assigned verification tasks, adding an extra layer of protection.
  • Effortless Integration: Early Scan runs passively, eliminating busywork while safeguarding your business.

With Early Scan, fraud never gets a head start, allowing title companies to maintain trust and keep transactions secure.

AI-Powered ID Verification: Precision Meets Protection

Fraud is becoming more sophisticated, and title companies need to stay ahead. That’s why our AI-Powered ID Verification takes fraud prevention to the next level, rigorously verifying the identities of high-risk sellers through advanced technology.

Here’s how it works:

  • Global Coverage: Verifies 16,000+ ID documents across 220+ countries.
  • Biometric Security: Links faces to ID documents to ensure liveness and legitimacy.
  • Real-Time Data Checks: Matches ID information against external databases instantly, flagging discrepancies before they become problems.

This feature not only stops fraudsters in their tracks but also positions your company as a leader in security and innovation.

Wiring Instruction Management: Securing Transactions from Start to Finish

Wire fraud is one of the biggest threats in real estate, and CloseSimple’s Wiring Instruction Management ensures every wire transfer is handled with the highest level of security.

Here’s how we eliminate fraud risks:

  • Secure Delivery: Instructions are sent through our portal, avoiding risky email exchanges.
  • Receipts for Confidence: Clients receive wire instructions directly, ensuring secure delivery.
  • Verified Transactions: Funds are sent to the right recipient, with verification built into the portal.

This streamlined process protects your business and your clients, creating trust at every step of the transaction.

The CloseSimple Difference: A Unified, Secure Solution

CloseSimple’s client-facing portal integrates all these features—Early Scan, AI-Powered ID Verification, and Wiring Instruction Management—into one secure platform. Instead of juggling multiple tools, title companies can consolidate their workflows, enhance security, and provide clients with a seamless experience.

This isn’t just about technology; it’s about empowering title companies to build trust, save time, and focus on what matters most: delivering exceptional service.
