At Sumsub, we verify millions of identities annually and stop tens of thousands of fraudsters every month. In this report, we examine how fraudsters act, what documents they forge, and how. We took a closer look at the numbers to help businesses protect themselves from existing and emerging types of fraud.
Our research took place between 2020-2021 and is based on tens of millions of identity checks, 6 500+ document types from 220+ countries and territories, and half a million detected fraud attempts.
