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.
