Transpose this scenario over to your casino players having to prove their ID every month. It makes no sense at all. Albeit a new account application for Paysparks and yeah you’ll need to follow the identification process.
But established account holders? Sounds a bit dodgy, doesn’t it!
And with relation to government ID a drivers license is exactly that. Last time I checked each state is responsible for issuing a DL. These Dept., are operated by the Government, hence a DL is a Government document which proves one’s identity.
Sending a scan of a passport always makes me wary. Not to mention it maybe illegal too. If it’s not illegal in your jurisdiction, then it’s recommended to send a scanned copy in black and white only, for obvious reasons. I’d probably also blank out the passport number too
I was looking for the thread last week but could not find it despite repeated searches.
They did a 180 on the usa id, now you can send a color copy of a drivers license or passport card front and back.
Its illegal to have places like Staples scan a drivers lic, they won’t do it. I would imagine they won’t scan a passport either.
btw id theft is around 20 per minute. Not sure if that is worldwide or just usa.
