Abstract: To prevent fraud, a magnetic card's ID, which may be a stripe ID or security chip, is converted to an encrypted card ID, which is stored on the card and in a database. Information about the card's history is captured, encrypted, and stored on the card and in a database. To validate the card, the magnetic card ID on the card is again converted to the card ID. This card ID is then compared with the card ID for that card in the database. The card history data stored on the card may also be compared, for validity and to determine points of fraud, with the card history data stored in the database. The data in the card's magnetic card ID can also be compared with the decrypted data in the card ID stored on that card to help determine the card's validity, for example, when the database is inaccessible. Card data about the account holder, stored on the card's magnetic stripe, may also be used to create the card ID for verification.

Abstract: A system and method for check anti-fraud security includes a system installed with an optional printer for printing the check base identification, a camera/scanner/reader coupled to the production printer for imaging/scanning/reading check base identification and MICR line information of the check, a data processing equipment to generate the unique check identification based on the imaged data, a database in communication with the camera/scanner/reader for storing the unique identification information, and a check validation infrastructure in communication with the database for validating the check in accordance with the database when the check is issued to a recipient; and further includes a corresponding method for identifying a check base stock, imaging check base identification and MICR line information of the printed check, generating the unique check identification, storing the unique check identification information in a database and validating the check in accordance with the database when the check i
