Topic: KYC - Passports and documents for sale on Dark Web - page 3. (Read 713 times)
This is very alarming because if you have joined any KYC from the past your IDs might been sold to the darkweb which most of the illegal things and people can be found.To avoid such things we shouldnt join any of these ICOs because im sure if these projects are really worthy investments they will be listed to the exchanges pretty past and we could obtain these coins without any KYC verification,
At the moment, KYC has not passed, and I'm not going to. States before their submission had to properly adjust everything. They wanted to introduce KYC because they began to fear that so much money passes before them and no one pays them any taxes. All data must be encrypted and protected. IP address, passwords, country, phone and I need to know at any time who asked for my data. This, in the first place, should have been done.
This is insane,my ID might be there two because i am joining these KYC ICOs because for the reason of the cheap token prices,the others are right u shoulda wait these tokens to get listed on exchanges so my privacy wont be compromised by these people.A lot of people here are doing a lot of cheating to get a lot of profits even the other's security will be put to risk.
That's very sad to hear.I hope mine isn't out there 
.Between if anyone can tell me how to check if my info is available on dark wen it would be helpful, although I am afraid if I would give my identity while trying to search for it in dark web (confused 
)
Not just ICO's now even some bounties are asking for KYC's

Does anyone know of concrete projects which are known to have sold IDs? I usually only do KYC on exchanges, and only the bigger ones. Exception was the Polymath airdrop.
You can prevent this from happening by not joining any of these ICOs that will require you to undergo KYC processes because i dont think this is really necessary we are a decentralized community and we dont need to give our identity to these people because bitcoin's aim is to eliminate these type of centralization,your identity might be stolen like what happened to these people so be careful.
But the main issues is ICO Project can suddenly ask for your KYC and paly with your coins.No KYC = No Tokens, Give KYC = Your data leaked.
I think KYC destroy our anonimity.
There are two reasons why your IDs are in the darkweb,one the KYC database were leak two it was sold to the darkweb intentionally.This is the main reason i am avoiding such projects because my privacy is my first concern of using the crypotucurrencies.You shouldnt be joining any of these ICOs because the tokens will be available in public when it gets listed in exchanges.
Is this really possible? How can a real person find their passports in dark net, which they didn't send there and how to deal with it?
All around are scammers, no one wants to earn their crypto honestly!

Crypto sphere should be anonymous and safety. When bounty requests Kyc registration it's a bad sign for me.
There has been a huge influx of passport available for sale on the Dark Web.
Also have seen posts where people are being accused of double entry into ICO's because the scammers used their passport information prior to them getting signed up.
This is something I have always been worried about. I never uploads my passport anywhere, but uses my Driver's license instead. I am also insured against identity theft and recommend you doing the same. Also have seen posts where people are being accused of double entry into ICO's because the scammers used their passport information prior to them getting signed up.
There will always be consequences with these actions that is why we should be prepare for the worst case scenario,this is just the start of all the negative things with the KYC verifications,we should be vigillant to all the things we are doing here because not all the people would be use this privilege in good things,stay away or face the consequences like this one.
That was predictable, with all that KYC things ... people doesn't want to share their own IDs so they're paying for somebodys' else.
The thought of this itself is so scary.

That's why I am so hesitant to join any ICO's with KYC. Because someone might used my identity to scammed people. I'm always careful on giving my personal information when joining other projects. Also have seen posts where people are being accused of double entry into ICO's because the scammers used their passport information prior to them getting signed up.
I am sure that this is the case, because there are so many projects that simply merge your data into the network, so I would not go through the procedure of KYC, because it completely contradicts the laws on personal information.
Oh what... The people can buy Passports and documents to make their KYC? Thats really crazy and it is not good for ICOs that have a KYC to invest in... I think it is not good to participate with wrong documents...

So bad. Meaning, joining in kyc with asking your passport and some information is not a good idea. Hopefully there will changes for that to secure the identity of the participants. Also have seen posts where people are being accused of double entry into ICO's because the scammers used their passport information prior to them getting signed up.
I think this is only done by frivolous companies, Scam projects ... I do not think that good companies will sell scanned documents on a darknet, thereby undermining their reputation. After all, we know that if this happens, the society will find out in the end which company did it.
Well expect worst because your IDs might be compromised this is the main reason why i am avoiding these ICOs that requires KYC verifications ,your IDs might be sold to cindicates or worst might be used to illegal activities and you will be suprised you are facing criminal charges.The best thing to do is to avaoid these ICOs because you can buy these tokens when they are listed in the exchanges.

This is the problem in submitting the scanned copies of our passport for ID verification. Now almost all of the crypto-exchanges are asking for ID verification, and I have sent my passport copy to at least 10-15 different exchanges. Some of these copies obviously ends up in dark markets.
