These risk-based assessments are based on 15+ years of historical data patterns and help businesses reduce financial losses related to communications fraud (including toll fraud, SMS pumping, and International Revenue Share Fraud).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The most common ways Telesign customers use Verify Plus are to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Prevent bots, spammers, and scammers from creating new accounts<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Block artificially inflated traffic<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In this article, we\u2019ll provide an overview of how companies use SMS Verify for these purposes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_86 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"#\" data-href=\"https:\/\/www.telesign.com\/es\/blog\/sms-verify-plus-add-on\/#prevent-bots-spammers-and-scammers-from-creating-new-accounts\" >Prevent bots, spammers, and scammers from creating new accounts<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"#\" data-href=\"https:\/\/www.telesign.com\/es\/blog\/sms-verify-plus-add-on\/#block-artificially-inflated-traffic\" >Block artificially inflated traffic<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"#\" data-href=\"https:\/\/www.telesign.com\/es\/blog\/sms-verify-plus-add-on\/#try-using-verify-plus-with-a-free-trial\" >Try using Verify Plus with a free trial<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"prevent-bots-spammers-and-scammers-from-creating-new-accounts\"><\/span>Prevent bots, spammers, and scammers from creating new accounts<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Verify Plus analyzes several factors related to users\u2019 phone numbers, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Phone number reputation:<\/strong> Verify Plus validates and analyzes the phone number provided during onboarding. It verifies the reputation of the phone number, ensuring it is not associated with fraudulent activities.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Historical data:<\/strong> Verify Plus leverages historical data to assess the previous phone number activity. It compares this data against known patterns of fraudulent behavior or suspicious activities to detect potential bots, spammers, or scammers.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By analyzing these various data points and employing advanced algorithms, Verify Plus generates a comprehensive risk score that indicates the likelihood of a potential new account being a bot, spammer, or scammer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This information allows businesses to take appropriate actions during the onboarding process and block high-risk phone numbers from creating new accounts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"communications-fraud\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"block-artificially-inflated-traffic\"><\/span>Block artificially inflated traffic<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By using Verify Plus with SMS Verify, businesses can protect themselves from financial losses associated with communications fraud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Verify Plus can detect users likely to attempt toll fraud, SMS pumping, and International Revenue Share Fraud (IRSF) attacks by analyzing:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Historical data:<\/strong> Verify Plus leverages 90 days of historical data to assess the previous phone number activity. It compares this data against known patterns of fraudulent behavior or suspicious activities to detect potential bots, spammers, or scammers.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Traffic patterns:<\/strong> Verify Plus examines A2P traffic patterns to identify any suspicious activity indicative of toll fraud. It analyzes factors such as number velocity, range activity, recency of traffic, and more to detect abnormal usage patterns that may indicate fraudulent behavior.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If Verify Plus detects these patterns and behaviors, it\u2019ll return a high-risk score for the phone number. Businesses can then take immediate action against the high-risk phone number to prevent financial losses, such as blocking the suspicious account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"try-using-verify-plus-with-a-free-trial\"><\/span>Try using Verify Plus with a free trial<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can try Verify Plus with SMS Verify through a <a href=\"https:\/\/portal.telesign.com\/signup\">free trial account<\/a>.
