A computer-implemented method validates a user instruction by storing, at a first computer system, a transformation method associated with account information of the user, and associated with a government issued identification document of the user, the account information obtained from an item issued by a financial institution. The computer-implemented method also receives, at the first computer system from a second computer system, the account information and a message electronically transformed from the user instruction by the transformation method based on the government issued identification document of the user. The user instruction is unrecognizable from the message. The computer-implemented method transforms, at the first computer system, the message into the user instruction with the transformation method retrieved based on the received account information. The computer-implemented method approves an action based on the user instruction.
1 . A computer-implemented method for validating a user instruction, comprising:
storing, at a first computer system, a transformation method associated with account information of the user, and associated with a government issued identification document of the user, the account information obtained from an item issued by a financial institution;
receiving, at the first computer system from a second computer system, the account information and a message electronically transformed from the user instruction by the transformation method based on the government issued identification document of the user, the user instruction being unrecognizable from the message;
transforming, at the first computer system, the message into the user instruction with the transformation method retrieved based on the received account information; and
approving an action based on the user instruction.
2 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , in which the account information comprises an account identification number.
3 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , in which the government issued identification document comprises at least one of a driver's license, a passport, an alien identification card, a resident identification card, a student identification card, a national identification card, a state identification card, an insurance identification card, a social security identification card, a voter identification card, a certificate of legal status, or a combination thereof.
4 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , in which the transformation method comprises at least an encryption method, a decryption method, or a combination thereof.
5 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , in which the financial institution comprises at least one of a bank, credit union, money services business, financial holding company, insurance company, insurance agency, mortgage company, mortgage agency, stockbroker, stock agency, bond broker, bond agency, commodity broker, commodity agency, trading company, trading agency, other financial service provider, other financial agency, stock exchange, commodity exchange, currency exchange, bond exchange, other exchange, funds manager, investment company, private equity firm, venture capital firm, virtual currency company, merchant acquirer, payment processor, payment card issuer, payment card program manager, internet merchant, other organization related to financial services, or a combination thereof.
6 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , in which the user instruction is associated with at least one of banking, trading, money transfer, shopping, payment, a financial transaction, an electronic money services transaction, or a combination thereof.
7 . The computer-implemented method of claim 6 , in which the financial transaction is associated with at least one of cash, check, wire transfer, ATM (Automated Teller Machine), ACH (Automated Clearing House), credit card, debit card, prepaid card, electronic fund transfer, account opening, account closure, an account application, deposit, withdrawal, cancellation, balance check, inquiry, credit, debit, or a combination thereof.
8 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , in which the first computer system is associated with at least one of an organization, an individual, or a combination thereof.
9 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , in which the second computer system is associated with at least one of an organization, an individual, or a combination thereof.
10 . A first computer system for validating a user instruction, comprising:
a processor; and
a memory coupled with the processor and storing instructions operable, when executed by the processor, to cause the first computer system:
to store a transformation method associated with account information of the user, and associated with a government issued identification document of the user, the account information obtained from an item issued by a financial institution;
to receive from a second computer system the account information and a message electronically transformed from the user instruction by the transformation method based on the government issued identification document of the user, the user instruction being unrecognizable from the message;
to transform the message into the user instruction by the transformation method retrieved based on the received account information; and
to approve an action based on the user instruction.
11 . A non-transitory computer-readable medium of a first computer system having program code recorded thereon for validating a user instruction, the program code executed by a processor and comprising:
program code to store a transformation method associated with account information of the user, and associated with a government issued identification document of the user, the account information obtained from an item issued by a financial institution;
program code to receive from a second computer system the account information and a message electronically transformed from the user instruction by the transformation method based on the government issued identification document of the user, the user instruction being unrecognizable from the message;
program code to transform the message into the user instruction by the transformation method retrieved based on the received account information; and
program code to approve an action based on the user instruction.
