Zasoby Verification vs validare IBAN
Par asemănătoare, dar verifică lucruri foarte diferite. Validarea IBAN confirmă că numărul este corect; Verification of Payee confirmă că numele aparține contului.
Two different checks, often confused
IBAN validation answers a structural question: is this IBAN correctly formatted, does the checksum pass, and does the account exist? It catches typos and impossible account numbers, but it tells you nothing about who owns the account.
Verification of Payee answers a different question: does the name the payer entered actually Overeenkomst the registered titularul contului? That's the gap fraudsters exploit — a valid IBAN that belongs to the wrong person. The two checks are complementary, not interchangeable.
