Finding The Fakes, Frauds & Forgers.
As forgers and counterfeiters become more sophisticated, officials are finding new ways to create fraudulent-resistant documents. One of the most effective methods is to imprint hidden ink which is extremely difficult to reproduce and is only detectable by using ultraviolet light.
All states will soon incorporate such images in their driver's licenses. They are also used on credit cards, vehicle registration cards, currencies, checks, and other important documents.
ultraviolet lights are also used by medical examiners to quickly detect the presence of proteins at crime scenes.
