Abstract
Provided is a method of detecting fraud during use of a device for capturing an imprint of a body part using a principle of total internal reflection with dark field and including a transparent plate on which a body part to be verified is placed. The method includes: using the device to acquire a first imprint image with a lighting of the body part such that the whole surface of the body part in contact with the transparent plate returns light; using the device to acquire a least one second imprint image by illuminating the body part with a single LED; obtaining for each second imprint image an item of information representative of a light level re-emitted by the body part by using each image obtained; and comparing each item of information obtained with a reference item of information to validate that the body part is a true body part.
