Informative Research Introduces Credit
Score Validator to Combat Fraud
GARDEN GROVE, CA, Sept. 1 –
Informative Research, a leading independent mortgage credit
reporting agency announced today the release of its Credit
Score Validator, a fraud and credit score verification service.
The Score Validator addresses the growing issue of mortgage
fraud by providing lenders a tool to authenticate the credit
scores that appear on a hard copy of a credit report. In
addition to validating the credit score, the tool also notes
if a fraud alert was issued on the original report.
“We recognize that fraud and identity
theft are on the rise,” said Jeff Lau, Director of
Marketing, Informative Research. “Our Score Validator
allows the recipient of an IR credit report to validate
key information from the report and safeguard against fraudulent
activity. At the same time, the service provides extra credibility
to our brokers. By using an Informative Research credit
report, a mortgage broker is showing they have integrity
and can be trusted in their actions.”
To use the Score Validator, the recipient
of an IR credit report simply enters borrower information
from the credit report into the website (verify.informativeresearch.com)
and IR will return the actual credit scores and whether
or not a fraud alert exists on the report. By comparing
the results with the credit report, the lender can have
a comfort level in the authenticity of the report.
“With our focus on mortgage
credit, we try to stay in tune with the issues that our
lender and broker customers face,” said Tony D’Eccliss,
Informative Research’s Vice President of Sales. “We
see this service having a definite value in the sub-prime
space where fraud may be more prevalent and a majority of
lenders still accept hardcopy credit reports with their
submission packets.”
