Is this why they want to collect all affiliates ID's all of a sudden? WTF is this?
Quote:
In order to maintain the highest level of security, we require all our affiliates to provide us with certain documentation in order to verify their accounts.
Why do I need to provide documentation?
There are several reasons. We believe knowing our customers is one of the keys for overcoming fraud. Fraudsters repeatedly change their IDs and use numerous accounts with small transaction volumes, making them less likely to arouse suspicion. Once the scam is discovered they "disappear". Worse, those fraudsters come back and repeat their scam over and over again. Scammers love anonymity, and anonymity attracts them in drove. At the end, the more we loose because of Scammers, the less we can afford to pay our trusted affiliates or invest in production.
Secondly, our payment processors require that our policies are in line with international banking standards. A proven business relationship with each and every affiliate is mandatory for the protection of all parties. Our licensing agreement also obliges us to comply with this.
Finally, by ensuring that your account details are absolutely correct, the inconvenience of 'missing payments' can be avoided. It can take weeks (and sometimes months) to trace, recall and resend using the correct information.
What documents do I need to provide?
For the reasons described above, we require the following personal information to become a Verified Member: Photo ID such as a passport or Driver's License is preferred. If you don't have either of these, certain other official identification cards may be permissible. These will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. We also need proof of the address on your account with us. A utility bill (water, electricity, cable, cell phone) in your name is best, but a bank statement or credit card statement is also acceptable.
When do I need to provide these documents?
We greatly appreciate your cooperation in providing these at your earliest possible convenience to avoid any delays in processing your payments.
How can I send you these documents?
Please scan your documents, or take a high quality digital camera picture, save the images as jpegs, then upload the files using our secure form in your profile. The attachment or attachments should not exceed 5MB in total and ideally should be much smaller.
