Dutch and US Authorities Seize Online Fake ID Trading Platform VerifTools

23 hours ago

On August 31st, as reported by Decrypt, Dutch and U.S. law enforcement agencies have confiscated the online platform for trading fake IDs, VerifTools. This marketplace sold counterfeit documents for as little as $9 in cryptocurrency, generating a revenue of $6.4 million, making it one of the largest suppliers of fraudulent identity documents in the world. VerifTools required users to upload a passport photo and enter false data, which the website operators then used to create fake ID documents. These documents were almost indistinguishable from real ones, employing advanced techniques like holograms and UV ink. Users ultimately paid for the forged IDs using cryptocurrency. The operation seized 23 servers, two domain names used by the VerifTools marketplace, and a promotional blog.
