Royal Vegas Poker - is this a scam? - Page 2

I show my driver's license at casinos, banks, retail stores, and a number of other places seemingly every day. I realize faxing a copy is not the same as "flashing" it, but I can't "flash" my DL to prove ID over the internet.

I don't mind providing this info, especially if I have a cash out coming. The info on my license is easily obtained as a public record, so it's not as though I'm protecting sensitive information. In fact, if any of you want a copy, PM me and I will provide it. The photo is great for scaring mice out of your house, even the BIG ones.

What's the postitive expectation then of being paid [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]?

Anyone have an idea of what the minimum deposit into Royal Vegas is to collect on whatever earnings you've been able to muster off of their free $10.00?

The big problem I have w/faxing in my DL is that it has my SS# on it. If I could scan it and blur the SS#, it wouldn't be so bad. Maybe I'll have to try that and see the site's response.

I guess I wasn't clear either. My DL also has my SSN on it and there is no way in hell I'm faxing that to some unknown overseas location. Be my guest though.

My experience with sites that have these BS cashout requirements are that if you call them on the phone and *politely* explain your reservations regarding identity theft,etc. you can usually get away with a photocopy of your driver's license with the ss# blacked out and a utility bill(which really shows nothing).This is,of course,assuming you did not buy in with a credit card.

What kind of a backwards state do you live in that has your SSN on your drivers license? First of all, it's illegal for any party (including states) to use SSNs as means of identification. Second of all, even if it weren't illegal, it's just plain stupid. They can't come up with some other number to identify you by?

I have played there, The games are so slow it's just a waste of time to play there.

What is the problem with Golden palace Casino? I was just thinking of signing up there for their 20% bonus.

Many States use the SSN as at least part of the DL ID#. I can think of a few right off the top of my head including the idiot state next door. Here in my state, we have a different DL# but have the option of putting our SSN on our license. For convenience reasons many people take that option.

SSNs are on licenses in many states. I don't know why they are there but they are. There is a separate driver license number on my DL as well which is the actual means of identifying the license holder. I won't argue my state is backward but what would you suggest I do about it?
