FingKad

Bir MyKad tutucunun parmak izini teyit bir araç

As reported in news, it does not cost too much money to make a fake card that looks real. Identity cards, driving licenses all have fakes floating around.

It may be all right if you just want to create a little bit of hurdle by asking to see a card. But it is harmful if you rely on the card for further actions. For example, by holding the person accountable for a contract, a loan or for any future fraud.

A person who does not intend to return your money, or who plans to commit fraud, will most likely give you a fake card, or a genuine or altered card belonged to someone else. By merely looking at the card, you lose the ability to track the person down. Worse, an innocent party suffers from days of mental stress because you point your finger wrongly.

If you wish to hold a person accountable, please check that the card is his/hers.

FingKad is a tool for anyone to perform the check, on an Android phone.

FingKad shows the name, IC number and address from the MyKad chip, and compares a fingerprint from the chip with the live fingerprint of the person. This gives more assurance that you have got hold of the identity of the person.

FingKad relies on the electronic security features of MyKad, which are improved from time to time. The national registration department (JPN) handles the improvements. FingKad helps you to benefit from the efforts. The features may not be perfect, but they are one of the best protections you can get.
