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.
