VELIX.ID: Platform for frictionless identity verification

in velixid •  6 years ago 

Sometimes ago, I was going through the process of identity verification on a website, i thought it would take me just few minutes to do it but very unfortunate for me, the verification extends from few minutes to some hours. As I was sharing this experience with my friend who also did the same registration, she told me that her own verification extended till the next day.

Identity theft is a very serious issue that lots of people have had to battle with in recent times, this to an extent is caused by the centralized system of internet operation. Some people have lost their identity in the process of filling a casual form on the internet, not knowing that the aim is to use the information collected for other purpose. Not too long ago there was news about a social media platform that was selling people's identity, it is a big crime. As matter of fact, some people have lost their life savings and investments on identity theft. A kind of situation where a person is cloned by some other people to claim the person's rights and benefits. Identity theft is a serious case!
