Yes this is too risky for us to give our personal information because it will result into identity theft and can destroy your personality to others even in your love ones.

This is some clever identity fraud. Hope this wont affect much people.
It is not good and these people should be put to death. How can one reveal and sell someone’s personal data? In my mind there is one solution for this problem and that is never give your original data on any site. Always use fake data so that you will be safe is such rascals sell your personal information and secret data to illegal users. It’s really shameful. those scammers are so smart that they know if you are using a fake identity . i have tried to sign up on several websites that is asking for credit cards but i always failed because they know that im using a fake credit card that i only generated online and also kyc is asking for selfie , you must hold your i.d and take a selfie with it by your self so how can someone fake this ? i guess the only way to solve this problem is to not join them at all . kyc isnt the only basis if an ico is legit or even scam because other ico's that doesnt have a kyc can sometimes become succesful at the end . so all we gotta do is choose wisely .

Using fake datas can result to a big problem to you later on, especially if you are using it in the legal site. The best thing that we can do here is that, don’t fill up any KYC form easily, most especially in a suspicious bounty campaign, this can prevent you from being exposed publicly. Yes this is too risky for us to give our personal information because it will result into identity theft and can destroy your personality to others even in your love ones.
Sad thing is that, Its hard fo stop this one because a lot of marketers are looking for this kind of information in order for them to advertise easily, I just hope that this will be more regulated later on.

this is what I fear when my personal data is sold on the black market and this is a violation, there should be special regulations regarding KYC enforcement so that illegal activities like this are difficult

This is the disadvantage in doing a KYC as we can't be sure that they will protect our data in a higher secure site. Hackers can penetrate even those highly secured sites. We heard many hacked exchanges and even our personal data is not safe on those exchanges. I don't know why some projects will require their bounty participants to pass KYC. Maybe they will sell the data to the dark-web in a worst-case scenario if the project will not make it grow.

Thanks to the govements. They only care the tax. I can only say: Photoshop both sides of your id card to stay safe.

Use your original photo and change on both sides on your id cartoon the name, id nr, name, birthday. (Best way to copy/paste letters from your own id or your buddys id card)i did never had any trouble on the big exchanges for verrify

If this is really true, then maybe i am really right with my intuation that something smells fishy about KYC stuff. I've been very reluctant to participate in ICO and bounty campaigns that requires KYC despite the reason that KYC can prevent money laundering.

now it's not just projects and ICOs that are made scammers but new exchanges are also starting to emerge with lots of giving a certain bonus coin or eth number if you join and do KYC, then the bonus cannot be withdrawn and there are many complaints and then they are lost
That is a huge red flag and it should not be ignored, if an exchange ask you your documents in exchange for some coins then you know that something is up, because exchanges should only request that information out of you if it is in their policies and not as a way to try to promote a coin or something similar, if you see an exchange doing something like that do not give your documents to them because it is likely it is a scam.

This is really bad, but it's also an opportunity for honest ICO entrepreneurs.
Why not using smart contracts to decrypt information only after the ICO has finished and is indeed happening?
We are getting ready for a sale for several communities, and we will indeed pay close attention to offer a solution to the community in this aspect. Any ideas my fellows?
Best, Borja

I think that ICO scammers will not just take off with your invested money. Probably also they selling your ID. proof of Identity + Selfie + proof of Residenz Uploaded KYC ID documents + selfies and address data are sold with large quantities on the darkweb, which are probably collected via scam projects. What do you think?. check these screenshots for example This adres http://wallstyizjhkrvmj.onion where they sell that shit Yes they do that and this is not the first time, it has been happening for long and since you know that, it’s left for you to learn to avoid making mistakes of giving out your personal information online. This is one of the reasons why it’s good to have fake, disposable email address that you can give to anyone without worrying about what happens next. Then you also need a fake number that you can dispose at anytime. Lastly when you’re registering make sure not to use your real name.

This one is really ruining the purpose of KYC because if this is true, investors will lose trust on ICOs. That's the reason why that i always have a second thought joining in bounty campaigns that requires KYC.

Well, there may be some who sold the identity of the individual, and it is really indeed a bad action of the person behind it. Well, to avoid those kind of situation it would be good to first scan, and do some kind of judging before giving up your identity. In addition, it is also good to deceive your own identity for your own good. Do not be honest at all time. Scammers are everywhere just ride with them as well.

It is dangerous, I would need to be more careful with projects that require KYC they are taking advantage of people's data illegally. Is there a way to punish these scammers?

I couldn't believe what i see in this post and as i reflect on the picture, it changes my point of view about KYC now. If that is so, it's better to submit or participate in KYC required ICO again.

I totally agree. Scammers will without a shadow of a doubt try to get every penny out of their schemes. So you have to be extremely careful when investing/ disclosing this type of information. Make sure that the ICO has a solid office and a solid team that you can track via multiple platforms like linkedIn, Facebook telegram etc, etc. Do thorough research. Although there are some elaborate scammers out there, you can normally tell when something is fishy as most don`t go to extreme lengths to legitimize their front of being a legit ICO. Interacting on media platforms like telegram, whatsapp and twitter is another good way to figure out if they are scammers or not. Again, talking about the majority here but If they are a scammer, they will stumble on the more technical/ difficult questions as there will be no product to begin with, so be persistent, ask the same questions with different wording and if the answers are not similar/coherent/the same/doesn`t match with the white paper info then i would think twice before I give out the super personal information. Just a thought.
