Hi, so i'm going to go over this as thoroughly as I can.
Let me address the main issues; ID verification. First off, is it neccessary and does it actually do harm? Well to an extent perhaps, but ultimately no it isn't necessary. Why would it be necessary if most reputable companies are fine without identity verification? And, well, does it do harm? Well sure, it does. It definitely does do harm. For two main components.
First, when a business like this is demanding someone to express identification visually, they're employing the idea that they should do this for other businesses. Which leaves bogus businesses as the real attackers. Ones that use this data to sell. It is also simply malpractice as Playerauctions could be selling our data without our knowing. There is simply no protection for your data when you are sending it via E-mail.
And the bigger issue.....If their systems were to be hijacked, which happens commonly among businesses, the attacker now has access to every single person's identification. Even if they delete it, they can download these photos remotely in real time, as they actively have access to their computers. This is the dark side, I suggest you research businesses being hijacked over the internet. Their system's might as well already be hijacked. A person can install a rootkit remotely with simply a link being opened. To their IP being remotely viewed. To, well, a plethora of methods. It is in fact, not hard to hijack someone's devices.
Now, let's address the quality of this verification process. Which is to say, no quality. At all. I sent them the pictures of my identification, credit card - and bank statements. All of them were picture perfect. I could read them clearly and they were very detailed --- each and every time. But they told me to send it again, so I did. And then they told me to send it yet again. . . . so I did. And then, yet again they tell me to send it again, therefore I do. Regardless of me knowing this verification process is bogus on terms of security.
It's virtually impossible to get these people to complete your purchase. THEY WILL NOT LET YOU COMPLETE YOUR PURCHASE, I REPEAT, THEY WILL NOT COMPLETE YOUR PURCHASE; MOST LIKELY.
I encourage you to look at other people's reviews on this issue thoroughly. I would say it's a hassle to purchase, but that's just it. It's not really a hassle, it was impossible.
