Hi guys, as many of you already know, many ICOs are asking for passport verification. Is it safe to give pictures of your passport to groups we don't even know well, I mean there is something called passport misuse and identity theft or even using you passport for loans! It is concerning.
Hell No! No matter how good the project is I wont still proceed on participating that ICO which do require any documents specially passport because these kind of ID's is really very personal and shouldn't really be shared or let it to public since there would really be a risk that those information would leak out its either they would be the ones who do use such informations or they are being compromised by hackers and getting all of the passport details have been accumulated and sell out on dark market.You wouldn't even know that your identity is being used up by others.
