US Patent 12015610 Secure online ID validation and review system

A method of detecting fraudulent activity during authenticating users and user identifications includes initiating a user's device to capture a sequence of images of the user to be authenticated commencing when the camera is operational and prior to receiving from the user a selection of the control that triggers capture of images and continuing until detecting that the user has selected the control to trigger capture of images, thereby enabling capture of activity performed by the user prior to and contemporaneous with selecting the control, including any attempted fraudulent activity of the user to be authenticated. Video, still images and audio of the user seeking authentication can be captured.
