Follow the guidelines below in the Answer Book for adding an entry to your list.

There is a single field for an optional field for a Social Security number, Tax ID number, or other ID number. Use the Comment field for any description or comment as to why the name is being entered into the database (such as “PASSED BAD CHECKS” or ”LOAN CHARGE OFF.”)

Guideline on How to Add an Entry to Your List

This screen is used to add organization to a denial of service or a transaction attribute (Pay to Name or Country) fraud block list.

How is a denial of service fraud block list different than a transaction attribute fraud block list?

Depending on the type of list you are adding to follow the guidelines below.

Adding an organization to a denial of service fraud block list (that is not the new membership fraud list.

Add a name or SSN/TIN and use Enter to match an SSN/TIN of an existing member to add a member to the fraud block list. NOTE: The file does not recognize if it is a SSN or TIN in the MASTER record, it just adds it to the file.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The SSN/TIN is actually what is added to the fraud block list. If the member changes their name or opens a different membership, the person will be blocked from the activity related to the block list if their SSN/TIN matches a name on the list.

Adding an organization to the new membership denial of service fraud block list.

CU*TIP for adding an organization to the new membership list only:

If you have an actual, valid SSN, it is usually best to enter only that with no name, to avoid missing a match when a name happens to be spelled wrong or an alias is used.
At least one of the fields must be completed; it is not necessary to complete all three. Remember that multiple records can be entered into the database for the same person, using different spellings of names.

Adding a name or organization to a “Pay to Name” transaction attribute fraud block list?

My “pay to” name that I am running against a fraud list has a common word, for example LLC, Co., Inc., Incorporated, or Company. What should I enter in the Pay to line?
