AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing methods are inadequate in detecting identity theft independently of user suspicions, leading to potential fraudulent activities, and require user confirmation that may not always be feasible.

Method used

A method is introduced to generate an electronic message with traceability data, linking it to static identification data, enabling automatic detection of identity theft by comparing traceability data in suspicious messages with stored correspondence information.

Benefits of technology

This approach allows for immediate detection of identity theft without user confirmation, preventing fraudulent activities by ensuring the authenticity of electronic messages.

Abstract

Methods for processing an electronic message and detecting identity theft, associated systems The invention relates in particular to a method for processing an initial electronic message sent by a sending device, said method comprising steps of: - generating (F20), from the initial message, an electronic message comprising at least one traceability data item, - storing (F40) information on correspondence between said at least one traceability data item and at least one identification data item of a user of said sending device. This method is used in particular in the detection of identity theft. Figure for the abstract: Fig. 5
