Use location to separate similar names
A city makes a name search more precise. Compare the result with known addresses, relatives, and professional records instead of relying on a name match alone.
Start with context
Add a location or another known detail to reduce false matches.
Compare identifiers
Check multiple details together; no single field proves an identity.
Verify sensitive details
Confirm important claims independently before acting on them.
Verification standard: treat matches as leads, not conclusions. Confirm sensitive details independently before acting.
