Your Document Checks Are Already Outdated

Most IDV stacks still trust any clean image of an ID. Modern tools now output perfect-looking documents that slot straight into those checks.

Pixel-perfect layouts and fonts IDs rendered to match real issuers, right down to spacing and typefaces.

Real identity details in fake ID layouts Leaked data dropped into ID templates that look perfectly normal.

Simulated holograms and stamps Security marks drawn on-screen so they look authentic to template and MRZ checks.

These deepfake documents look better than the real thing, and glide through controls that only inspect the picture, not how it was created.

One Fake ID Slip-Up Can Put Your Business at Risk

Your current stack validates data and templates, not the digital provenance of the ID. That blind spot is now treated as a systemic risk.

The Attack is Escalating

AI-driven document fraud is booming. By mid-2024, U.S. lenders’ exposure to synthetic IDs had reached an estimated $3.2 billion. As forgeries get more sophisticated, every weak verification step becomes an invitation for abuse.

The Cost is Compounding

Identity fraud build on fake documents, will cost U.S. lenders $2.9 billion by 2025. Every approved fake ID enables money laundering and systemic fraud.

The Penalties are Historic

Regulators are issuing record KYC fines, $4.3 billion for Binance and $3.09 billion for TD Bank. Approving even one fake ID exposes critical compliance failure.

Why Traditional IDV Misses AI-Generated IDs

Built for Paper-Era Forgeries

Image Quality Filters

Score sharpness, crop and glare, not whether the pixels come from a real ID.

OCR & Data Matching

Read names, dates and numbers correctly, while trusting the document image by default.

Template & MRZ Rules

Validate layouts and check digits once; any image that fits the pattern is treated as genuine.

Missing Today’s Deepfake Documents

Instant Fake ID Generators

Fake ID tools mimic fonts, logos and backgrounds so well they pass template and MRZ checks.

Reused IDs With New Details

The same high-quality ID image is recycled across accounts while key text fields quietly change.

Blended Portraits & Pasted Regions

Faces and signatures are composited onto convincing backdrops, so the overall layout still looks like a real ID.

Why Shufti Detects forged IDs Others miss

Interrogates the Document Code

Shufti validates MRZ lines, barcodes and other machine-readable zones against strict format and checksum logic, then cross-checks them with the printed fields. Any inconsistency is treated as proof of fabrication, not a harmless typo.

Examines text, Layout & security features

Shufti inspects fonts, spacing, emblems and security elements against trusted designs, revealing computer-drawn text, cloned seals and missing features that a template-based check would approve.

test the portrait & background

Shufti analyses the portrait and surrounding background for unnatural blending, lighting and texture patterns that occur when a face or whole document has been generated or heavily edited.

How Shufti Spots a Fake ID

Others read text. Shufti AI runs a deep forensic investigation to find the hidden digital clues that prove a document is fake.

Documents
Forensics

Shufti examines the document as an image, not just as text, analysing fonts, micro-geometry, backgrounds and security features for signs of rendering, splicing or re-use that basic OCR cannot see.

Detects Digitally
Altered Text

Shufti spots pixel-perfect fonts and unnatural text uniformity invisible to the human eye. This is a clear sign that the text was digitally inserted.

Spot
Digital Editing

Shufti detects the invisible digital seams and compression marks left by Photoshop or AI. This proves it's a digital fake, not a real, government-issued document.

Use the findings to strengthen document-originality policies, third-party oversight, and AI-risk governance.

Fraud & Risk Operations

Spot the Forged Documents Your Stack Misses

Test Shufti against known mule accounts, synthetic identities and repeat offenders to reveal where forged documents were previously approved.

Identify patterns by issuer type, geography, device or channel to stop how forged IDs are entering your ecosystem.

Use audit insights to tighten manual review, prioritise real fraud signals and reduce false positives that slow down good users.

Product & Engineering

Evaluate Document-Deepfake Detection Without Integration

Run Shufti in your own cloud against historic onboarding sessions and document uploads - no integration or code changes required.

Keep production flows untouched while you measure uplift in detecting forged, manipulated or AI-generated documents.

Use the results to justify strengthening your document-verification stack, switching vendors, or adding a second line of defence.
