Topic: Sending in fake ID for KYC - page 45. (Read 89379 times)
this is a controversial issue, as probably many people thought about it. but, on the other hand, it will quickly become clear, and besides it is necessary to do selfie. however, this procedure is generally not safe, because you can use your data for criminal purposes.
Some of these ICO company do KYC just to prevent US and Chinese citizens to join ICO because of ICO regulations in their county, and if your county is not US or China they will verify your KYC fast, that's why KYC that need to take pictures of yourself while holding your passport or National ID is necessary to Identify if it's really you, this is also for Anti-money laundering, maybe some of this greedy bounty hunter passed KYC for doing photoshop because the reviewer is not that strict, I did not participate Bob bounty so I don't know what kind of KYC they are doing
I have Polymath and Bobs and they have non of my information. Sorry you sent yours in.
Remember its not illegal to hand your friend a fake ID. The KYC process is absurd as there is no way in hell they know who is on the other side of the ethernet cable.
Only fools send in real docs. Jesus guys.
Check out the laws in your area and wisen up to the internet game. Why in the hell would you give an unknown person your passport?

Yup.
Kyc is ridiculous enough. Do you people even know who you're sending your personal information to?? Do you trust them?
Heck, I cant even send my email out anymore without getting spammed like crazy!! So why would I trust these companies to keep my actual personal information private?
I think the company just following the rules on EU stating that company must be verified by KYC, so for me there is no issue if you submit your profile/ID in spurious manner but if you are investor it is better to submit your true profile rather than risking your investment.
If they have no any way to verify IDs, then there is no any reason for accepting all these documents for kyc, if only someone would come and defeat KYC process via photoshopped documents. Absolutely not fair, something must be done to eradicate that from ICO industry
first of all it is ridiculous to demand kyc for joining icos in this ecosystem. because non of the ico crew are 100% trustable in this decentralized ecosystem. if you give your own id, it can be leaked very easily.
Good topic worth to think about and warning others about sending real documents. Nowadays it is hard to stay safe so why risk it if it not necessary.
Better miss one opportunity to make some dollars than get fucked in some real shit of criminal.

I have been a fool in the past for seeing my real passport and other documents but I think we just have to step up the game. Because we don't know what's going to happen to such documents at the back end. I think we just need to be very careful and security minded
It your call as unless you know that team personally or some of the big name is associated with that team it can be little dangerous as you are unaware how your personal document could be used. We have seen what has happened with the well known FACEBOOK what they have did it.
KYC is generally a complete formality in almost all projects. They collect data and in almost 50% of cases they are hacked and start mass mailings.

Forgery documents can be very dangerous, because at any time you can be asked to provide information or call you via Skype. Therefore, I do not think that this is a very good idea, and it costs sleepless nights.
I think when it comes to using our personal information and documents for kyc project I think it's just very risky and unwise if we think of it the other way round. I believe with time all this kyc thing will stop

Well, this is annoying considering that nowadays lots of bounty and airdrop are asking for KYC. In fact, I think the numbers are already tens or even hundreds, maybe. I just think how stupid they are who send their KYC ID just a few cent from airdrop. No doubt if there are some people who use the airdrop with KYC model to deceive back them with a fake KYC. 
I firmly believe that Know Your Customer isn´t a suitable process for many cryptocurrencies. These don´t own the righs of securities and must not require of that approach.
I have no problem in giving my real ID cards for KYCs. Only people with multiple accounts are against this. What’s the worst thing that could happen to someone with a very low credit limit? Not getting paid because the ID sent was fake and got charged for falsification of documents.
Most of the company dont even comply with the kyc rule as they never even get to the lent of verifying the id or passport no written on the documents and dont even verify those with proof of address documents...
I think that is very inappropriate that you deceived other people just to have get what you need. sending fake IDs gives them a impression that you are a bad people and doing illegal things.
I hope in doing KYC we must be careful because we will not know for the future. That our personal data will be used for what. And I think to avoid a project using KYC for participants to join.
It's illegal, so it's punishable. I can not say that using fake personal data can bring me more profit. Because personally I always use reliable information about myself only in reliable projects. I feel better.
