Particular embodiments described herein provide for a communication system that can be configured to receive a request for a service from a user device associated with a user, transmit details about a specific service provider for the requested service to the user device, and receive an identification of a service provider from the user device subsequent to the transmitting of the details. The communication system can be configured to provide a first user notification in response to determining that the identified service provider is the specific service provider for the requested service. The communication system can be configured to provide a second user notification in response to determining that the identified service provider is not the specific service provider.
