Topic: Sending in fake ID for KYC - page 21. (Read 89379 times)
Sending KYC in this ico,sto whatsoever is not safe I think that's why other sends fake ID's they are afraid their data to be stolen a new website with weak security can easily hacked by hackers. KYC ruin the feature of cryptocurrency which to be anonymous but US SEC requires everyone to do kyc because they don't allow US citizen to invest on ico looks like they want to control us.
I feel people send fake id because they don't trust unknown parties with their private details. They are even those who don't participate in anything that require you sending your id.
I just was brought up to speed on groups of people sending in fake/Photoshopped ID's by scanning public records to defeat the KYC process and it seemingly is very easy to do. It appears that many people sent in fake documentation to the Bob's and Polymath KYC and had no hassles. How do these companies verify people if all they have to go on is public information? Did they even really check the ID's or were they simply collected the data? How rampant do you think this is? How many of us are complete fools for turning in our documents when others simply faked it. Now they have our data and the people who faked it are still secure.
NOT FAIR.
The KYC information are never checked nor verified and as such you won't be detected even when you send in fake IDs. If the project you are sending the information is not that important to you, just ignore the KYC. NOT FAIR.
It's not fair for sure because other people are fair ro send their real Identity and better for them to send also the real information Id they have. I don't think other people do cheat even not good for the others if you want to send your kyc so don't join does it.
I doubt most ICO's are checking documents so many people are abusing this without knowing that using fake ID is illegal. I would never invest in crypto project which is asking ID, there are many projects which don't and many projects who don't ask documents are better than projects which are asking them.
Faking identity cards is not a surprised in this modern world. Most people are afraid to give out their personal information just for some coins which might not even have any value. But since they can't let go of their hard earned coins, then they have to present some fake documents for their coins.
KYC is invented here to improve the transparency in this field so we need to definitely give the original KYC for verification here otherwise there is something will be problem happened to you at any time so my opinion is giving the original will always been better.
If i had a fake id i would surely try this.
Because there are lots of things asking for our private information and mostly we don't even know our information is secure or not at all.

NOT FAIR.
from my experience so far having participated in over 20kycs. The best kycs are those that involve a live picture of the individual with id card or passport and date of kyc application with project name all held up.
I know couple of people who represented not their ID during the registration with KYC system and they think that they fooled successfully the site. For now they both OK, but who knows how such cheating will turn in time.
That is more common now. Many projects require KYC, but many people have sent fake KYC to defeat and overcome it. Due to the amount of KYC sent, the censorship team could not remove all fake IDs. Currently, there are many forms of KYC, but many different forms from users can defeat all.
I don't see anything obviously wrong in sending fake id for kyc since most of these ICOs shouldn't be trusted with personal information for security reasons. And it's very difficult for them to authentic received kyc details since a number of them resort to manual verification and not by going through public records.
It is better not to send your ID to strangers at all. The bad ones could easily misuse this identities without being held accountable. I am not sure if there is any law against the misuse of identity by anonymous people on the internet.
People creating fake ID is expected. Criminals always get anything they want in unjust situation while law abiding people dont.

in my opinion if it can be done better because the personal data is very valuable, but if the cyc from the public document that has been edited is unsuccessful and maybe I need it right away, I will submit personal data to kyc verification

NOT FAIR.
It is really unfair to know that there are people who have been using fake ID for them to finished their requirements. While we use to passed ou true information to complete our requirements. I hope that they should realize that they are being unfair, i understand that they don't want to submit their true identity but they still need to submit it fairly. NOT FAIR.
This is indeed possible, and as far as I understand, many people today use this successfully, because nothing else can be done, because no one can control the situation with certainty, but I am sure that the base is going to successfully
I think that this is not necessary. I'm against it. Sooner or later they will find out. Forging documents is at least illegal. It is possible and in an honest way using your document pass KYC.
I think its unfair and at the same time very risky. Its unfair for others who send their real information and its risky on the part of the sender because he or she might get caught and end up with nothing. But I think the real issue is whether its safe or not to send your personal info in KYC procedure.
I think KYCs are different. Some of them require information that shouldn't be shared and some of them just wants the information in your I.D. It will just depend on you whether you want to pass those or not. I think faking the information the you want to give is a good idea for me. I think this is a revolution on KYC itself. And if you are against it, we guys should show it to them that we dislike the idea of having KYC in bounties. But one of the bounties that I joined that had KYC ended up as a good one. After that, I never joined a bounty that has a KYC.
I don't know why anyone would be asked to send in ID docs or even why KYC is needed for ICO's. I know most of the ICO's now insist on KYC in order for anyone to buy their coins during their initial sale periods but I see no reason for it.
