A method and system for determining an identity of a user over a network that may not otherwise provide for user identification as such, e.g., a pre-paid mobile telephone user. According to an embodiment of the invention, a plurality of user profiles may be compiled based on network communication usage, and for new users, a usage profile may be compiled and compared to previously complied user profiles. Based on a degree of similarity, a determination may be made that the user corresponds to a user that previously used the system. Various usage profiles may be used, including, e.g., social network, geographic usage, account activity, etc. |
