"Cipro is constantly reviewing its business processes as well as related controls," acting CEO Lungile Dukwana said in a statement on Tuesday.
"The recent review confirms that Cipro processes and related business rules require new measures which will assist Cipro in fighting and reducing incidents of fraud and corruption that are usually reported to us", she said.
These control measures included providing certified copies of the green barcoded identity document.
In cases where more than one member was involved, such as a close corporation or company, all members or directors were required to provide certified copies of their identity documents, Dukwana said.
"All applicants and users of Cipro services are requested to ensure that from July 14 2010, certified copies of identity documents are included on submission of Cipro-related applications and transactions," she said.
A recent forensic probe showed that corruption and fraudulent practices had taken place at Cipro and that several fake companies had been registered to take advantage of tax returns.
Its CEO officer Keith Sendwe and chief information officer Michael Twum-Darko were suspended for allegedly rigging tenders.
