Oltiby.com Announces Technical Partnership With TeleSign For its Online Auctions "Verified Member Program"

Jupiter, FL - - April 2nd, 2007— Oltiby Inc. (oltiby.com) recently announced a technical partnership, whereby TeleSign Corp. (telesign.com) will provide Oltiby with an advanced security feature for the verification of its online auction members.

"Our reverse auctions marketplace needs to gain trust from the online community. We are a growing business and our members’ security is our first priority" said Sylvain Reiter, VP at Oltiby Inc. "Introducing an additional layer of security was essential. TeleSign's cutting edge anti identity theft solutions will help us avoid fraudsters and anonymous bidders to secure all our auctions." Reiter added.

TeleSign introduced a revolutionary verification system that forces anonymous users to be reachable on a valid phone number. Email verification may end up filtered, junked, bulked, or trashed, but a telephone call cannot be stopped and forces anonymous users to be reachable/traceable in order to be part of the "trusted community".

Darren Berkovitz, TeleSign’s Chief Operating Officer explained: "Our API was very useful to the Oltiby Development Team who has maximized their security by combining Real Time Phone Verification and Phone Identification, which flags pre-paid or VOIP phones and identifies the phone’s location. We’re pleased to have partnered with such a progressive, forward looking company like Oltiby."

The verification process is currently optional on Oltiby.com. However, any serious buyer can reduce his concerns about fraud with the option to host reverse auctions, where only verified members will be able to bid.
