A vote of confidence
The following note was e-mailed to Jason Felts in response to his
inaugural Street Smarts SM article "A passion to share," The Green
Sheet, issue 08:04:01, April 14, 2008:
I am writing to you today in appreciation of the article you wrote
in Street Smarts. Being a salesman here at Merchant Warehouse, I
could relate to it directly. It held in it different aspects of things that
I take away from each call, as well as applicable things I could
apply to the next person I speak with.
I think merchant processing has many similarities to religions that
exist right now: There are many to choose from; there is always
someone saying that somebody else is wrong or their choice is better.
I liked your adage about the dog; it was a great read. I appreciate
your articles, and I look forward to reading more soon.
Christopher,

Verity from Veratad
I wanted to thank you for the mention in your lead article entitled
"Fraud busting, electronic style," The Green Sheet, May 12,
2008, issue 08:05:01. I did want to point out that there was a bit
of an error as it pertains to what Veratad validates.
The following is what the article stated: "On the online identity
verification front, AgeMatch, IDMatch and IDMatch+Plus from
Englewood, N.J.-based Veratad Technologies LLC can authenticate
the validity of financial institutions when sensitive cardholder information
is requested over the Internet."
Veratad is able to validate individuals and for financial institutions,
but we do not validate the validity of a financial institution.
