i was worried about it uploading id too but its safe if you do it right. you can block out the important bit. there wudn't b as many ppl on this site if it wasn't safe. plus u dont need to upload id for some offers. u can verify by phone. i dont kno if ur gonna read this but there was no point in startin the forum if u aint gona keep posting

yeh but b fair. u read about it all the time. they keep drummin this fraud business into our heads ova and ova agen. and when something seems too good to be true (ie money for nothing) it seems a little suspicious.
but its obvious this is legit. loads companies do this and afiliate themselves with poker sites.

The least you could do is to send them an ID for a free $50 no deposit bonus. Is it that hard? Isn't it more suspicious if a company gives you $50 without asking you for anything or like verifications? You signed up here cause you want the bonus and to get it you simply have to upload your ID, besides you can block some informations in it. almost all poker rooms require IDs anyway.

Ya, I think you should always be careful of identity fraud. I think I'm a little too easy going but once identity fraud happens to me than I'll be pissed and won't know who did it.
I just covered important numbers..I don't think they can do much with just a name and address but who knows.

I dont get it why is he paranoid about BRM. You can blank all sensitive data and even most of your picture. Only thing that needs to be shown is the data you entered manualy. For everyones info, i used same amount of protection when it comes to blanking out confidential data on ID with poker rooms and it went throught just fine. I am paranoid but this is ridiculous.

They can do something with your name and address but certainly not something which will be held against you in court. And if its not hurting me what do i care

We don't mind if people block out sensitive information on their ID. But unfortunately they will not be able to request the Pacific Pokerbonus then, since the terms for that bonus requires that Pacific Poker will have access to your ID to verify your age and identity (it's their policy), and they won't allow any modifications to the ID.
Why you signed up here? Well, hopefully it was for our bonuses, which is NOT only limited to the free ones, but there's LOTS of other bonuses too: http://www.bankrollmob.com/bankrolls.asp
