## Abstract

A device includes memory and a processor. The device receives biometric information. The device receives location information. The device analyzes the received biometric information with stored biometric information. The device analyzes the received location information with stored location information. The device determines whether the received biometric information matches the stored biometric information. The device determines whether the received location information matches the stored location information. The device sends an electronic communication that indicates whether the received biometric information matches the stored biometric information and whether the received local information matches the stored location information.

## Claims

### Claim 1

An electronic communications method, comprising:
receiving, by a device, electronic biometric information;
receiving, by the device, electronic location information;
analyzing, by the device, the electronic biometric information;
analyzing, by the device, the electronic location information;
verifying, by the device, that the electronic biometric information matches stored biometric information and that the electronic location information matches a stored geographic information; and
sending, by the device, an electronic communication that to another user, located at a geographic location associated with the electronic location information, that the electronic biometric information is verified.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The electronic communications method of claim 1, where the electronic biometric information is associated with a first person and the stored geographic location is associated with a second person.

### Claim 3 (depends on 2)

The electronic communications method of claim 2, where the electronic biometric information is associated with fingerprint information and the electronic location information is associated with the first person.

### Claim 4 (depends on 2)

The electronic communications method of claim 2, where the electronic biometric information is associated with retina information and the electronic location information is associated with the first person and the second person.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The electronic communications method of claim 1, where the electronic biometric information and the electronic location information is received simultaneously.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The electronic communications method of claim 1, where the electronic biometric information is received before the electronic location information.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The electronic communications method of claim 1, where the electronic biometric information is a combination of fingerprint information and at least one of:
retina information,
voice information, and
facial information.

### Claim 8 (depends on 1)

The electronic communications method of claim 1, where the electronic biometric information and the electronic location information are received within one electronic communication.

### Claim 9

A device, comprising:
memory; and
a processor to:
receive biometric information;
receive location information;
analyze the received biometric information with stored biometric information;
analyze the received location information with stored location information;
determine whether the received biometric information matches the stored biometric information;
determine whether the received location information matches the stored location information;
determine whether a time associated with the received location information is sent from a user device within a particular period of time of a communication sent from another user device; and
send an electronic communication that indicates whether the received biometric information matches the stored biometric information, the received local information matches the stored location information, and the particular period of time is below a threshold value.

### Claim 10 (depends on 9)

The device of claim 9, where processor determines that the received biometric information matches the stored biometric information and the received location information matches the stored location information.

### Claim 11 (depends on 9)
