The Detecting Forged ID and Documents Module is a separate module designed to complement AML/CFT Complete and Foundation Courses with vital information to develop skills on detecting fraudulent identification cards and documents. This is to help further strengthen the capabilities of individuals—particularly all Covered Persons—in preventing money laundering and terrorist financing through effective verification measures.
Aside from providing key information on how to detect forged IDs and documents, through the module learners will also be able to thoroughly assess the quality and strength of their current verification process.
The module opens to the discussion on the differences between Identity Theft and Identity Fraud, and proceeds with the legal definition of an “Original document”.
Also included in this module are topics on Authentication and proving the genuineness of handwriting or signature, which are important skills in detecting fraud. Here, the learner will also know the differences between Forged and Falsified documents.
In this module, learners can also expect discussions on how to determine if a Covered Person can identify and verify the identities of persons, authenticity, due execution, storing information, and performing Risk Assessment (Customer Due Diligence), all of which can guide the learners in assessing their current capabilities in dealing with identification and document fraud.
This module has no prerequisites, which can be finished in 1 hour and 20 minutes (including learning checks and the final exam).
This module is best taken with the AML/CFT Foundation Course and AML/CFT Complete Course.
