Financial identity fraud alerts

Create a service that monitors for new accounts opened in a user's name across fintech apps.

Why now

Cash App fraud cases show how easily accounts can be opened with stolen IDs.

Effort
A few months

People don't know when accounts are fraudulently opened in their name until debt collectors call.

Offer real-time monitoring of popular fintech apps for new accounts using a customer's personal info.

Consumers would pay a small monthly fee to catch fraud early, before damage accumulates.

Start by monitoring Cash App and Venmo via their APIs, then expand to more services.

Risk: Fintech APIs may restrict this kind of monitoring.
