Thirdfort Uses iProov Liveness to Tackle UK Property Fraud Risk

iProov has announced that UK legal and property ID platform Thirdfort has deployed iProov Dynamic Liveness within its client due diligence platform to protect high-value property transactions from identity fraud. Thirdfort serves more than 1,500 regulated businesses in the UK legal and property sectors, providing ID verification and anti-money laundering checks for processes such as conveyancing and tenancy onboarding.

The companies say the integration is aimed at combating what they describe as a £1.6 billion slice of the UK’s total £2.3 billion fraud losses attributed to property-related identity fraud, citing figures from the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAEW). Thirdfort’s platform combines high-assurance identity verification with AML checks including Source of Funds, politically exposed person (PEP) and sanctions screening, and Know-Your-Business verification.

Within this workflow, iProov Dynamic Liveness is used during biometric identity verification in Thirdfort’s digital identity app to confirm that the user is a real, present person rather than a deepfake, mask, or injected digital feed. The deployment is positioned as a defense against AI-enabled attacks such as synthetic identities and video injection, while maintaining a low-friction experience for legitimate buyers, sellers, tenants, and other participants who can verify once and reuse their identity across the transaction lifecycle.
