Conducted physical address verification for the given address

AuthBridge’s field staff visited the residential address Navneet provided and spoke to her mother, who stated she had two daughters. One was married and lived in Chandigarh, and the other was employed by our client.

Contacted applicant’s brother

AuthBridge then contacted Navneet’s brother via telephone. He stated that one of his sisters, who had been married, had died and that he lived with his mother and Navneet. We now had two pieces to assemble this puzzle – one of the sisters was dead and married, and the other lived with her mother and brother.

Reference checks with multiple ex-employers

AuthBridge researchers found the final piece by sending the latest available photograph of Navneet to her first employer, who apprised us that Navneet died a year after working for them. He stated the girl in the photo was not the one that had worked for him.

The second employer, who had hinted the two might be sisters, was also shown the photograph. He did a comparison check with the photo in his records. He observed that despite their similarities, they were not the same girl. The AuthBridge Research Team also carefully examined and compared the photographs and came to the same conclusion.

The final confession

When presented with the conclusions of our report, Navneet confessed that she was impersonating her sister. She could get away with it for so long because the real Navneet- her sister – had died of pneumonia just before she was to take up her job, and no checks or documentation were required at the time of joining.
