The shared fraud network
A fake caught at one employer is flagged at the others, without any employer seeing another's candidates.
What is compared
Email addresses, phone numbers, devices, ID document numbers, LinkedIn profiles, résumé text, files and photos, and shipping addresses. Each is turned into a keyed hash or fingerprint on the server, with a key only the Elsin server holds. Names are compared inside Elsin only to catch an ID used under another name.
What comes back
Counts only: how many other people share a value, at how many employers, and how many of them were flagged. No names, records or employer names are returned, and résumé text is never shown to another employer.
Whose data counts
A match from another workspace counts only when it comes from established employers, meaning a paid workspace at least 14 days old or one at least 180 days old with two or more members, and at least two independent ones agree. A workspace not yet established sees device, phone, résumé, photo and LinkedIn matches, and application counts, only among its own candidates.
One check counts every workspace: an ID used under another name or on another account.
How a match is used
Being linked to someone flagged elsewhere adds weight but never sends a candidate to review on its own. It only does when a person there kept the flag, or the shared value is a confirmed ID. A flag that rests only on the network is never passed on.
There is no setting to leave the network. A candidate who withdraws consent has their identity codes deleted.
