Press Release Summary: Certified Identification provides unique option for social
networkers.

Press Release Body:



Troy,NY,March,01,2008 -- Commercial Investigations LLC (CI), a leading employment
and tenant background screening company, now offers an online identification and age
verification service for the web. CI allows users to get "CIchecked" and obtain an
electronic Certified Identification certificate. Social Networkers and web users can
post the CIchecked trust mark on their web pages, profiles, auctions and e-mail
signatures so those interacting with them online can simply click on the trust mark
to view their Certified Identification certificate which verifies their name, year
of birth and city/state of residence.

Michelle Pyan, a licensed private investigator and President of Commercial
Investigations, has been providing background screening services since 1991.
Commercial Investigations provides thousands of identity, age and address
verifications for employers and landlords screening applicants. "This is a natural
extension of our services and expertise. We saw a need and an opportunity to provide
a unique solution based on our technical and organizational competencies," Pyan
states. "As more interaction and transactions occur online, there are more instances
where anonymity on the web is not desired."

Users who get a Certified Identification certificate through CIchecked and post the
trust mark on their social networking profiles, web pages and e-mail signatures can
protect their online presence as well as introduce trust and confidence to their
visitors. For example, celebrities have had difficulty claiming their online
territory because of imposters taking their profile names, URLs and domain names.
Just as it can be difficult to distinguish between a person's "official" page or
site for high profile members, anyone's profile can be duplicated easily. CIchecked
offers Certified Identification so users can display the trust mark on their pages
and let viewers know they have found a real person, and that they are who they claim
to be. Many high profile celebrities and politicians have complained about the
imposters on MySpace. A search for Hillary Clinton on MySpace turns up more than 200
profiles, many indistinguishable from the official Hillary Clinton page. CIchecked
provides a means for those on MySpace and other social networking sites to verify
that they have found the "official" page of who they are searching.

The certificate can be purchased online at www.cichecked.com in just a few minutes,
cost $9.99 and is valid for one year. "It's a great value because with CIchecked you
can purchase just one certificate and post it on almost all your social networking
sites, web pages and even message board signatures," Pyan said.
