Talk:Third-party verification/Archives/2015

Elvey (talk)

This: "we have many clients who use TPV to have reliable documentation of their orders" stinks of copyvio. Someone follow up (alert Alexa, determine extent of copyvio, save page from total annihilation?) Google hits on that snippet: http://www.callcenterz.com/third-party-verification.php, http://www.marketingtheweb.ca/articledetail.php?artid=125683&catid=9&title=Third+Party+Inspection+And+Verification+Services, http://www.seattleluxury.com/information/entry/Third-party_verification, many more. (Note: please feel free to remove the URLs from this comment after the issue is addressed.) Copyvio exists in the first version of this page, edited by Alexa Foster, 20 July 2006, and has survived dozens of edits! --Elvey (talk) 16:18, 10 February 2009 (UTC)

-Yup. Also lacks balanced coverage. For instance TPV is becoming common on the Internet in general under the banner of honesty, liability and law enforcement reasons (e.g. Facebook and major free email service require some form). But in fact many sites seem to be just as interested in collecting mobile phone numbers for marketing reasons either to make calls under the "signed" privacy policy (us and our closest 200 affiliates of the month) or for pinpoint personalized targeted marketing (negating consumer evasion of monitoring). I found it disturbing that Yahoo/Facebook will only allow the name registered to the phone and that IP location match phone location (towers? GPS?) during new account creation. Sources should include political analysis of online policy making including NSA and law enforcement influence as well as enabling legal strategies for diversion/avoidance of blame.

-The connecting article about online predators should probably point out that "allow connection/viewing of real identity only by invitation" is an alternative child protection method that is often more effective especially if it requires parental approval of invites and keeps logs for parental viewing.

-Finally coverage of this topic cannot be complete without some source analyzing the large number of ways and ease of evading TPV. (Its is appalling easy if you take the time to search - see YouTube on web sites issuing temporary phone #s for free etc). 70.114.148.225 (talk) 23:17, 20 June 2014 (UTC)

Third Party Verification and IVR

I propose writing a section in this article about the use of automated IVR systems to both connect third party organizations to verify sales as well as automated prompts that record transactions (on an independent service bureau) to verify a transaction. However, I am affiliated with a company that provides this system [http://www.call-center-tech.com/third-party-verification.htm TPV IVR Solutions] and this presents a potential WP:COI and WP:NPOV. I will wait to get input from other neutral editors. Thanks. pgillman 17:49, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
