An apparatus for validating a user behavior comprises a proximity detector (201) for detecting a proximity of a first device (101) to a second device (103), e.g. in response to the establishment of a short range communication, such as an NFC communication. A receiver (203) receives motion data from a motion detector with the motion data being indicative of a motion of the second device (103). An evaluator (209) evaluates whether the motion data meets a motion criterion or not. Finally, a designator (211) designates the user behavior as valid only if the motion data meets the motion criterion and the proximity of the first device to the second device is subsequently detected. Otherwise the user behavior may be designated as not valid. A processor (213) e.g. being part of one of the devices (101, 103) may perform differently dependent on whether the user behavior is designated as valid or not, e.g. different user notifications and feedback may be provided. |
