hedwigstudio Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 So, I have this buyer. He want me to deliver photo of my id card for ‘verifying game account’. Is this safe? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheezees Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 The buyer is trying to pose as you. Are you comfortable with that? Therein lies your answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

solidslick Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Confusing - I don’t see anything you’re selling that is “game account” related?WHY would a buyer be asking you that anyway LOL!Good on you for canceling!. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
belgianwriter Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 I would never do this! It does not sound safe at all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hedwigstudio Posted February 21, 2014 Author Share Posted February 21, 2014 Reply to @solidslick: Yes. First, I’m sorry if my English is not that good. This buyer is from a certain country. He ordered my hold your sign gig (kimono one) and asked me to replace the sign with my ID Card. So, I did it. But he rejected my delivery because the ID Card’s detail wasn’t that clear. I had this bad feeling about this buyer earlier (he constantly sent me a message demanded me to reply it asap), so I requested a cancellation of his order. He rejected my request, and instead, asked me to send my ID Card photo, which is suspicious.Recently, I got a message from a buyer (same country with this buyer earlier) about same gig, and he attached this zip file (he said that this file contains a ‘colourful text file’ he wants me to hold). But, when I extracted it, it contains an exe format file. Which is also very suspicious. Lol.I love fiverr so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solidslick Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 Reply to @hedwigstudio:Hmmmmmmmm …That’s back to basic internet safety.Don’t EVER give your personal details to anyone unless there is a clear and VALID reason. There was NOT one in this case.Anyway glad it worked out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
