Burbank, CA (PRWEB) February 1, 2005
National Legal Debt Centers, Inc. (2/1/05) http://www.nldc.us There are deceptive ads on the TV, radio and internet claiming that for a small fee you can legally get rid of your credit problems. With language about the “legal forms from the federal government” and your one-time “right” to apply for a “new Social Security number” these advertisements try hard to convince you that their system, called “file segregation,” is the secret to a fresh start. The problem is, they’re false and potentially illegal. (For the real deal, check out: http://www.creditchampion.com/?Document=Credit+Reports)
File Segregation Creates a False Identity
When you sign up for one of these services, you will be instructed to apply for an Employer Identification Number (EIN) from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). EINs resemble Social Security numbers, and are usually used by businesses to report financial information to government agencies. Once you have this “new” number, the credit repair service will tell you to use it in place of your Social Security number on credit applications. They may also instruct you to use a new mailing address and offer some credit references.
Since your credit file is tied to your name and Social Security number, using this new number and information supposedly allows you to create a brand new credit file. Then creditors requesting a credit report with your name and new number will not see your previous file with all the negative information it contains.
These credit repair services will most likely offer legitimate sounding cautions. They’ll remind you that to make this clean slate count, you have to pay your bills on time from now on. They’ll also tell you it will take 60-90 days before your new credit rating really begins to work for you, since after all, you’re starting from scratch.
Per the FTC, Segregating Your File Violates the Law
Unlike other credit repair scams that may make you the victim of fraud, this scam makes you a perpetrator of fraud against the government. If you try file segregation, you could face fines or even a prison sentence. Several aspects of the credit repair service’s program could lead you to commit fraud. It is a federal crime to:
· Make false statements on a loan or credit application.
· Misrepresent your Social Security number.
· Obtain an EIN under false pretences.
In addition, if you were to use the telephone or the postal system to apply for credit and provide false information, then you could be charged with mail or wire fraud, too. And, file segregation likely would constitute civil fraud in many states.

Universal Background Screening Introduces Identity Verification Solutions
Washington, D.C. (PRWEB) June 26, 2006 –-
Universal Background Screening, a national provider of employment screening solutions, today introduced two new products to help human resources professionals confirm applicant identity during the screening and hiring process. The announcement was made in conjunction with the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) 58th Annual Conference and Expo in Washington, DC.
Universal’s SSNsight™ product works in conjunction with the company’s Social Security Address/Alias Trace to identify applicants who may be using illegitimate or stolen social security numbers. The expanded product first determines an association between an applicant’s name and social security number, as well as additional names affiliated with the SSN and an address history compiled from a variety of sources.
SSNsight identifies the state and year of issue for an applicant’s social security number. Finally, unlike trace products offered by other screening companies, SSNsight includes a search of the Social Security Administration’s Death Master Index to determine if death benefits have been paid for the SSN provided.
Simplified, Real-time I-9 Compliance
The Immigration Reform and Control Act (IRCA) of 1986 legally mandated that employers verify the employment eligibility status of newly-hired employees and made it unlawful for employers to knowingly hire or continue to employ unauthorized workers. Since that time, employers have been required to collect identification cards and documents, complete complicated forms and essentially accept the legitimacy of identification documents at face value. Employers had no way to quickly, accurately and legally determine a new hire’s identity and legal right to work through official government sources.
Through the company’s partnership with Form I-9 Compliance, Universal Background Screening’s Electronic I-9 product empowers employers with online tools to quickly, easily and legally conduct right to work verifications for new employees. This unique solution allows employers to accurately and officially confirm the identity and legal authorization to work of new hires while decreasing human error in the completion of I-9 forms. The final result is simplified compliance with the IRCA and peace of mind for the employer that the workforce is legally authorized to work in the United States.
Form I-9 Compliance is the first federally-approved Designated Agent of the Department of Homeland Security and the Social Security Administration for Form I-9 employment verifications. The proprietary system integrates with the federal government’s Employment Verification Program (EVP), allowing employers to quickly and accurately verify new employees’ legal right to work.
In addition to new employee verifications, current employee records can be screened to identify those with mismatched Social Security numbers through the Social Security Administration’s Social Security Number Verification Service (SSNVS). Employers benefit from improved accuracy of payroll and tax reporting while virtually eliminating inquiries by the Social Security Administration regarding unmatched Social Security accounts.
“SSNsight is a powerful tool to help employers confirm the identity of job applicants,” said Julie Chase, Executive Vice President of Universal Background Screening. “Through our partnership with Form I-9 Compliance, the Department of Homeland Security and the Social Security Administration, clients of Universal Background Screening can now perform real-time electronic I-9 employment eligibility checks on new hires.”
Universal Background Screening can be found at Booth 1443 in the main exposition hall. More information about SHRM’s 2006 Conference and Expo can be found online at www.shrm.org.
