Facebook is now asking for IDs state issued or drivers licence
The Issue
Hi,
Unfortunately, we can’t assist you until you reply and attach identification that verifies the name submitted in your request.
Please attach a copy of one government-issued ID (ex: driver's license or passport) or two documents from a respected institution or business. Together these documents must show your full name, photo, and date of birth.
Some examples of acceptable documents include:
- School or work ID
- Utility bill
- Marriage license
- Legal name change paperwork
- Credit card (with the number blacked out)
- Birth certificate
If possible, save this file as a JPEG and cover up any personal information that we don't need to verify your identity (ex: address, license number). We also recommend sending your attachments over a secure connection. Find out more here: https://www.facebook.com/help/?page=148993491850191
Note that we won't be able to assist you until we receive the proper documents.
Thanks,
The Facebook Team
That was the email I got to it I had a account with over 4200 friends this is a act of privacy and something needs to be done bout it ASAP! Facebook needs to change this policy I dont think its right for them to ask for this personal information.
