1. A method comprising:
- requesting, from a user, a verification of a current location of a user-associated telecommunications device in response to a user-initiated communication from a user-operated telecommunications device, wherein the user-operated telecommunications device is distinct from the user-associated telecommunications device, wherein the verification of the current location is performed by utilizing instructions from memory that are executed by a processor;
recording a communications address of the user-associated telecommunications device, wherein recording of the communications address is utilized to determine if the current location has been modified;
determining if the current location of the user-associated telecommunications device has been modified based on the communications address that has been recorded;
providing a different communications address to the user so as to obtain feedback from the user, wherein the feedback from the user is for verifying the current location of the user-associated telecommunications device;
updating the current location of the user-associated telecommunications device to a new location if the feedback sent to the different communications address confirms that the current location is not verified; and
providing the user with a location of the user-associated telecommunications device via a rendered graphical representation of the current location of the user-associated telecommunications device.

18. A system comprising:
a verification processor that executes instructions to performs operations comprising; requesting, from a user, a verification of a current location of a user-associated telecommunications device in response to a user-initiated communication to a non-911 communications address received from a user-operated telecommunications device, wherein the user-operated telecommunications device is distinct from the user-associated telecommunications device; recording a communications address of the user-associated telecommunications device, wherein recording of the communications address is utilized to determine if the current location has been modified; determining if the current location of the user-associated telecommunications device has been modified based on the communications address that has been recorded; providing a different communications address to the user so as to obtain feedback from the user, wherein the feedback from the user is for verifying the current location of the user-associated telecommunications device; updating the current location of the user-associated telecommunications device to a new location if the feedback sent to the different communications address confirms that the current location is not verified; and
providing the user with a location of the user-associated telecommunications device via a rendered graphical representation of the current location of the user-associated telecommunications device.
