It doesn't bother anyone that people in California and Australia are claiming the coins? Or that the ID number isn't only for Icelandic people? Or that there is an easily accessible database of 70,000 numbers that were hacked (i.e. I could probably go claim some coins right now. Actually....)...no doubt there is some widespread fraud here.

As far as I understood the process, first you input your Kennitala (and here anyone could copy/paste one) but then you need to confirm your ID by means of:

-Facebook account, must be preexisting to Airdrop
-SMS received on a icelandic phone


So I don't think fraud is as simple as you make it out to be

What if they created a fake FB account before yesterday, but after they learned of the blueprint auth means..?

And what if legitimate citizens of Iceland only created a facebook today in order to receive the airdrop?

Nothing like a well thought out plan. Roll Eyes
