Sending in fake ID for KYC

[labake]

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

I know that every person can buy fake documents on special forums. And it scares me. Now it is too accessible. I am against fraud.

There are some KYC that are easy to bybass using fake data because they just ask data without selfie with ID card or passport.
The best way is to require a selfie with data written and ID Card/passport visible. This is hard to make a fake verification..

This becomes common practice because many people are not going to show their real documents for some money, it's not right and I think that the SEC and many other people who think they are smarter than others need to think about this and very quickly.

I believe that this is a check in order not to have multi-accounts, I think that your documents are not needed by anyone, because in order to do some fraudulent operations you need to have an identification code and its projects can not invite!

I think i have I've heard about that too. They use some sort of AI bot for docs/faces recognition and don't do that manually lately. Let's hope it can be bypassed.

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.

I have sent KYC on several bounty programs to get my bonus. Among them are CIBUS, (CBT) and Betex even Covex but I never falsified my ID. I also do not mind those who manipulate their KYCs. that's their right. I just do not want to be a liar

No wonder some people easily do KYC even as bounty participants. Even when others complain, these set of people would never complain. I cannot use fake data and so i can't participate in any KYC. I do not even see any reason why i should participate in KYC as a bounty hunter. The only place i feel KYC is necessary is on exchange and this is for security reasons.

It is the wisest idea that you could ever do so that your privacy wont be compromised because you wont know when will these people start selling off our IDs,sending fake ones would be enough to secure our privacy in the future. Might be a good idea because if these people who are doing KYCs will sell our IDs and information we will still be safe because we have sent fake IDs and our real informations wouldnt leak to the public

It will be better than to say sorry,because you will never know when will these IDs be sold to the darkweb,or it might be used to any illegal activities and your name will face a lot of lawsuits,that is why we need to be more vigillant get some fake IDs so that you will be safe to any bad situation in the future,do not trust anyone except yourself. As long as you are following the promising ico with good guys behind the project and your ID will still safe dude

[think3214]

I do not understand the meaning of passing KYC. Buy fake documents is not a problem. Everyone knows that. In fact, even no one really checks for a fake. I see that there are no obvious signs and miss everything.

It is because their greed, they want to invest in a coin so badly that they are willing to do anything even if that means exposing themselves to great risks like identity theft they are not thinking of the future consequences of their actions. These guys might be making some sense here about the fake ID because we don't know what these governments are up to. Anyway it all depends on the type of questions asked in the form, we should be very careful about it

[bamita139]

I don't think the founder of a project really check the investors IDs. It is just a way to avoid the law problem. And I think it is a good way to do with fake IDs.

[BountyLord]

I think that sending of fake documents for the KYC, this is the risk that you will not get your reward. I do not know how verification works, but I think that if KYC really is needed for the ICO, then such verification must be carried out.

[Xelpherpolis]

So that no one can use my documents, I do not send a copy of my passport, but use a driver's license for this.

[markieeeloy]

Make sure only to do KYC when the ico that hosts it is a legit one. Do not give your credentials to a scam like ico, it may be harm. But to those users who uses a fake documents, and invested on a campaign, they have a chance to be banned by using fake documents if the team finds out. And has a big chance that the amount they invested will be banned and cant be recovered.

[hoami55]

don't you think  Its' dangerous if some bad guys know your personal  details infomation. i never joined project which need KYC ,why not buy from market ,maybe cheaper then ICO.

This happens when your data has been given out freely by some ICO's who collected your data maybe for some KYC purposes. But also people do get our info and use it as theirs and at the end our info has been submitted

A lot of people here are sending out other people's documents. You can send in strangers too if you're worried . Who is smart does not send their documents. If you do not know how to do it use the Internet.

If a project is legitimate and if you are about to join in that particular then yo should ask if kyc is required for it. We cant deny the fact that in this year there are so many ico that used to require the investors or the bounty to go with KYC to have no other problems with the laws.

[Red Ron]

If I send real information about myself, very soon my information will also be sent by other people. I do not believe that ICO organizers can safely store information
