            Intelli-Check Names John E. Maxwell to Board of Directors

WOODBURY, N.Y. (September 6, 2005) - Intelli-Check, Inc. (AMEX:IDN), a leader in
advanced identification-document-verification systems, announced today that it
has named John E. (Jay) Maxwell to its board of directors, effective immediately
for a term that ends at the annual meeting of shareholder's in 2007. Mr. Maxwell
fills a vacant seat on the board of directors. Mr. Maxwell served as the senior
vice president, information technology and chief information officer of the
American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators (AAMVA) from June 2002,
until his recent retirement.

In his role at AAMVA, Mr. Maxwell was responsible for all information technology
initiatives, including nationwide, mission-critical IT services used by the
AAMVA membership, development of its driver license and ID card specifications,
and educating members of Congress, state legislators, governors and their
respective staffs on IT issues of importance to its members and in the interest
of homeland security. From 1989 to 2002, he held various positions at AAMVAnet,
Inc., an AAMVA subsidiary, most recently as president and chief operating
officer. Prior to that, he served as team manager, senior systems analyst,
programmer, US Department of Transportation.

"We are pleased to have someone of Jay's skills, experience, and background join
our board of directors," said Frank Mandelbaum, chairman and chief executive
officer. "Jay knows the benefits of the use of our technology firsthand from his
work at AAMVA and with its member states' motor vehicle administrations, and
brings to the company the critical perspective of someone who has worked for
years on developing and implementing tools to ensure the integrity of the state
driver license - the de facto ID card in the United States. We believe that his
knowledge and skill base in this sector will contribute significantly to our
board."

About Intelli-Check, Inc.
Intelli-Check, Inc. is the acknowledged leader in technology that assures the
authenticity of driver licenses, state issued non-driver and military
identification cards used as proof of identity. Our patented ID-CHECK technology
instantly reads, analyzes, and verifies the encoded data in magnetic stripes and
barcodes on government-issue IDs from approximately 60 jurisdictions in the U.S.
and Canada to determine if the content and format is valid. Applications
include:

      o     security and access control to protect airports, government and
            commercial buildings, military installations and other critical
            sites as well as for first responder initiatives

      o     identity theft, commercial and government fraud prevention to help
            stem the billions of dollars each year in losses from credit card,
            check-cashing, bank, insurance, healthcare, pharmacy and other
            economic frauds

      o     age verification to protect bars and other retail establishments
            from the potential fines and penalties associated with selling
            age-restricted products to under-age purchasers

      o     productivity enhancement to eliminate inefficiencies and
            inaccuracies associated with manual data entry


The company has been the national testing laboratory for the American
Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators (AAMVA) since 1999 and has access to
all the currently encoded driver license formats. For more information, please
