![]() Today it looks like Rookiebabe now requires a GOVERNMENT ISSUED ID for recieving funds via epassporte. They claim it is for FRAUD protection? What the hell is this shit about? First it was ARS doing it now Rookiebabe, whos next? Tell me how on fucking earth can you commit fraud by recieving affiliate funds via epassporte? Epassporte care to comment? Sponsors care to comment? Not only do I have to give you sponsors my social security number and my other personal information now you want my ID so you can keep a copy too? How can I trust YOU with ALL of that? Do you see where I am going with this? It makes no sense to require a picture ID for using epassporte as a payment option, and dont give me that shit that US laws require it because epassporte is not a US company.

Angry and bitter. Kind of thexy.
Here's a better question: What the hell kind of idiot would possibly want to be paid out via Epassporte anyway? People hear nothing but horror stories all the time, yet they keep on. Soon we'll hear all you idiots bitching left and right when you end up losing money because of their half assed operation. |

The answer is quite simple, use another sponsor.
BoyAlley, theres nothing wrong with epassporte...the horror stories usually involve complex transactions & don't bother the typical webmaster.

Though I will say that having a copy of an affiliates ID would make me feel better. Reason being is that lets say an affiliate is under the age of eighteen. Well then that affiliate could not enter into a legally binding contract and I thus could get very fucked. Such an affiliate would not be bound by my TOS or anything else really and could back out of any agreement at moments notice. Not to mention it would not look to damn kosher if I filed my tax information and for some reason the people I list monies paid out to was cross referenced and someone noticed that I being an adult company was paying a minor, well I would rather that not happen.

i would be very afraid of giving your documents to a company whos employees may work in non-usa countries.. or vice-verca
You could find your face on some terrorists passport. Even if the company involved was completely legit. It doesnt mean they dont hire an iranian programmer who has access to your social security number address and photo.. sound like a dangerous cocktail of identity fraud just waiting to happen.

A few have asked and they were told the facts of life that US law was not a law applicable in dealing and they simply accepted that without data being provided. Hell.. even our lawyers and bankers can end up in a jailcell for providing this info - why should we over-rule em and offer this on a voluntary basis?

only thing going on with epassporte is their shadiness, greed, and poor customer support.

If you are a legit webmaster with moral business practices then providing additional information should not be any real problem so long as the company you are providing the information to has it written into their privacy policy how your information will be handled and destroyed.

This is NOT a slight to RookieBabe at all, they have been nothing but a class act IMO; I doubt very much they'd ever resort to tactics like I've described above however who knows what some others might do.

Obviously these programs have weighted up their options and made the most benefical change for their program. If asking for ID is their move - great. Theres no shortage of sponsors out there. ARS is by no means the only one. Checkout trafficcash or silvercash .. they have a similar setup you may enjoy without requiring to submit ID. |

How many of us get spam to email addresses we have only given out to sponsors? Ever stop to wonder why some non-US based sponsors ask for SSN numbers? Etc. There are good reasons to have real concerns about entrusting sponsors with the personal information they already require, certainly sufficient to hesitate before providing them more.
If I ran ePassporte this trend is one I would want to stop if I possibly could, because to many people the "convenience" of ePassporte is already marginal. I have a suspicion, if only because it is my own reaction, a lot will think harder about whether they really need that service, if they have to jump through any more hoops to use it. I also resent the way the sponsors wanting this are demanding it from everyone, regardless of factors such as how long someone has been an affiliate. They can't be bothered to filter us out, so we get an extra job (albeit simple enough) to do. I have also seen two sponsors named that I wouldn't have known had instituted this requirement had it not been for this thread. That reminds me of sponsors who suddenly require W9's, but instead of mailing their affiliates, tuck a notice away on their sites somewhere... |

lol, this has nothing to do with epassporte IMO, the sponsor are simply collecting info that they can make few bucks selling
Think about it, how difficult can it be to fax a fake ID, or driver's licence or whatever else they require, my guess is this is exactly how the scammers got their epassporte accounts on the first place |

Did you talk to anyone at ARS? Long time webmasters are being taken care of if you call them and talk to them about your account.

They have no legal way to verify your documents , so in reality all this does is create a burden to legit webmasters.. any fraudster is just going to make up fake shit.. So theres 1 of 2 reasons this is being done.. #1 so they can sell your info or #2 someone is an idiot who thought this decision up.

i would like any sponsor who is asking for i.d. to explain this to me..
How can you possibly verify people's identification ? and furthermore how will this help fraud in any way. ?
