Why You Should Never Share Your Verification Link
Your verification link — sometimes called a magic link, onboarding link or secure sign-in code — provides direct access to your identity verification session. It is unique to you and must only be opened by you.
Sharing this link could allow someone else to impersonate you or complete verification on your behalf.
Why sharing your link is unsafe
Criminals may attempt to:
- Pretend to be your solicitor
- Ask you to “forward your link so we can check it”
- Urgently request your link to “fix” something
- Send a fake version of your link
- Claim they need your link to speed up your matter
Once someone else has your link, they may be able to:
- Access your personal information
- Upload fraudulent documents
- Attempt identity theft
- Manipulate your case or financial transaction
This is a common tactic in social-engineering scams.
Your link is designed for you only
Your verification link is:
- Unique
- Single-use
- Time-limited
- Cryptographically secured
- Connected to your personal onboarding session
INMYNAMEKYC and your law firm will never ask you to send or share this link.
How to stay safe
- Never forward your link to anyone
- Always open it directly from your email
- If you are unsure whether a message is genuine, contact your law firm directly
- Look for unexpected or urgent requests — they are a common fraud tactic
If you think you’ve shared your link
Contact your legal representative immediately using the trusted contact details provided in your onboarding email.
