Scam Description
This company contacted me to give them a photo of myself holding my driver license as verification of identity for my credit card purchase.
NO ONE should ever give their photo with their driver license to an online business. This is ripe with fraud and this business could do anything with that image and private information. This is a copy of the email they sent:
