Thanks to put up a nice question.I am too concerned about the same thing though.However there are many people who puts up their ID as they have no option left and has to get things done.Personally I am not comfortable with putting ID online but I had putted my ID online in some sites which are reputed.

I'm also not liking this but sometimes there is no way to do this without a id so I still do it sometimes I even used a fake id to make a transactions because I do not like it, never of course scammed or something just for my security!

Using fake ID is not cool .If you are caught then they may close your account and you may not be further able to use up their services.


I also do not like it when I have to do this and a fake ID is not the answer too it also, I think for some its legit and logical but for other services I just find it not acceptable.
Its how you look at it, your details can land on the streets,,,

Sometimes companies ask for proof of identity or they won't deal with you. It depends really on what service is asking for all the information. Sometimes companies are required by government to ask all this information. So when we talk about electricity, water, television, rent of house and health insurance I don't see the problem to provide mine ID. Other services you have always ask yourself the question is it really needed to provide all this info. Besides all companies could be possible victim of hackers.

I do not like it at all, its a sort of privacy that is falling away in my eyes and I think its also not worth it to be honest.
If it gets hacked or something they have all my details, its not comfortable if you are asking me..

Honestly its risky to share and use your real identity in online because many news are hacking your bank accounts and sometimes i heard that someone are arrested by using bitcoin.. its better to dont share unless you are using paypal to verified it.

If you do not share your information, you cannot buy bitcoins easily. Without ID, you can buy bitcoins -- but at a premium, such as using the service of Virwox. ~20-25% premium.

At least 3 exchanges have my selfies and address/bills. That sucks. It's a silly move, when i think back. However.

The least I could do is to watermark all those photos aggressively. If one day my info were leaked, scammers can't use it as much as they wished they could.

I really do not care but its sometimes a bit weird for me because I do not always like it, you never know what is happening with it of course.

I also do not feel comfortable, I give up buying bitcoin using paypal because they asked me many documents.

This site https://localbitcoins.com when I bought bitcoin asked me selfie, photo of my ID and screenshot of my paypal account and sent me to write a handwritten document which I signed. I never understood why you need all this, then I buy bitcoin using Payza and give up buying bitcoin using paypal.

Identity theft/fraud is a big thing nowadays.

So just a question - Are you guys comfortable with going on sites and verifying your ID with you and legal proof? I'm personally not, because on the internet anything can happen.
