Have you ever heard of shit like this from a sponsor?
 

a large sponsor requires a utility bill and id to get paid :Oh crap :Oh crap :helpme:helpme you think they do the customers the same? hell fuking no! :disgust i want to say the name but won't so don't ask

That sounds like mainstream sponsor type shit. Name the sponsor.

Do those fools know who they're fucking with?

That sounds more like identity theft than business

ddfcash..............

talk about security, wanting personal details of the affiliate...

why? That´s just not needed :2 cents:

Thought I read about that on here before.forget who it was though

Sign of the times.

Rather than send personally identifiable information, why not just send them your company Tax ID and or business information? My guess is that would suffice.

If it's DDFCash (as some mentioned in the thread), simply put your Tax ID on the invoice you send them.

here is a hint it ends with stripper put one letter in front of that :winkwink::winkwink:

Totemcash, for real?

Contact Celine.

wrong!!! :error --->stripper add a letter in front no more hints

I am going with Astripper, istripper or xstripper.

You do realize that VirtuaGirl / TotemCash rebranded to iStripper in April of last year, right?

ok :upsidedow

id is needed in mainstream, i imagine it is coming more and more to adult as well

Totem cash was my first thought .... They never straight asked for THAT though. Last time I logged in it did say I needed to provide some additional information for payouts,
They're a great company and paid me like clock work for years .. I'd talk with them about your concerns and they'll probably work with you

I wonder what ever happened to do boer

EU laws forces the to do it, when sending money outside their own national border.

We just invoice them, so no problem there

If you don't like the way a sponsor does business. Move on to another one.

They do it to stop tax evasion.

what??? :Oh crap :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

No stupid, they do it to "stop" fraud.
But in this case they just want to pay OP's electric bill directly to avoid disconnection. Its a charity thing.

If it's a US Sponsor the IRS or the Department of Labor is looking at his books.

Either that or that sponsor is checking TIN numbers

they are in france

Oh aren't you fancy Mr. big international business man :1orglaugh

Hello Guys,

Sorry about my late response, I was off for a couple of days.

So Brassmonkey is talking about us (iStripper).

Yes, we have set this "Know Your Customer"process years ago on the request of one of our billers.
I understand that it sounds unusual but you should look at it the way around as a guarantee of seriousness and an insurance for affiliates as it prevents iStripper affiliate program from most of fraudulent activities.

To be honest, we have only received a few complaints about it over the years and each case has been solved with a fair & suitable solution.

Serious affiliates should not be afraid of such prudence.

Files are sent via https. Once they are validated, files are encrypted on our server and nobody can open or read them anymore (including us).

Feel free to contact me if you have any question.

cheers

1. You have no idea who you saying this to. Better watch your back now.


2. Bull! Paul Einstein said its due to money laundering because he knows with amount of traffic OP sends, we are talking about millions of euros in payouts. Enough to create new black-afro ISIS who will be too lazy and too scared to fight.

never said the name :2 cents::2 cents:

They did and called you not serious webmaster. Don't take that diss dogg. You streetz cred in on line here. Send your crips home boys to France. They can do drive by in 2 door Smart cart. Dat will teach'em a lesson dogg.

Tax reasons ? :2 cents:

in current times, sponsor should provide utility bill and id to new affiliates, so affiliates will know they wont be getting fucked later.

just saying.

Oh, I can perfectly understand this. They want to prove that you are in fact you.

Why? It's simple - fraud.

Years ago I worked for a company where we were constantly being hit by fraud. An affiliate would sign up, get a few dozen sales, we would pay them out, and next month discover all of the credit cards were stolen. The only thing we could see from our end was that this person was on the upper east coast of the US - NY, NJ, and New England, etc. At a certain point the FBI got involved. It turns out the guy was a waiter at multiple restaurants in NYC, he would swipe new credit cards every night, drive out of the city to some place where he could get free internet (library, Starbucks, etc) and sign up for multiple affilaite accounts and also bang through credit cards.

Thats all well and good but what protection is in place for people submitting the forms?

bullshit!! you think a thief will use his or her real info??? :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh by the way those docs can be made with false info.

You da real MVP Horatio Caine... Got me lol'n through this whole thread. :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

What he is saying is that you are an idiot. :1orglaugh
There isn't one word about thieves using their real name.

Is that illegal

not sure since they are not a bank. this is not used for taxes.
