Shippers that want to copy your ID? How do you feel about it?

If you froze your credit, NOT LIFE LOCK, nobody, not even you, could have done those things. Freeze your credit. Life Lock charges you to do nothing.

 

Yep
My teenager got a fake ID so he could buy booze , some place in China makes em , they have the hologram and bar codes etc that actually work when scanned by the restaurant,
Theirs was a Maryland drivers license .
Very well done . No one ever spotted it as fake

 

latter 2000 decade: I used some duct tape to cover Birth Date and Street Address PLUS scored the back side so not scannable.
Worked until I went to an Army Base yet they let me in.

 

That won't stop those who don't run credit checks.

Also, a nuclear power plant and a military base are the only places I've ever shown my CDL to gain access. Everyone else can only see my company ID and/or my TWIC.

 

November 2001; all the chemical terminals in NE NJ were going ballistic.

One of our drivers, an ex-paralegal,declined to let them photocopy his CDL and dialed his former boss on his cell phone.

They stopped trying to copy them but we immediately issued ID cards too.

 

Had an issue at 3M Chemolite plant in Cottage Grove. Huge plant that requires you to leave your DL while on company property.
10 years ago I refused and left the plant without making a delivery.
Really stirred the pot!
It's my personal private property, my livelihood and my identification during any emergencies or evacuations.
Apparently it went to the top and was decided we would not be required to surrender or present the driver's license and showing an official company ID would suffice for a gate pass.

I try not to let anyone anywhere scan my license into their system.

Why does a liquor store, hotel or any venue need that info stored for? My dentist wanted to scan it 2 weeks ago..no thanks.
It is simply shown to verify identification or age one time...

Data breaches are way to common these days. Companies selling that info for marketing can KMA.
And if you've known anyone who has had their identity compromised or stolen you understand.
