Trust Who ID Verification is a service that verifies your identity with the goal of removing some of the anonymity from online trades and sales. The requirements of Trust Who ID Verification are that you be located in your home town when ordering, that you provide accurate contact information including telephone number and street address, and that you provide a physical form of identification (ID) through which we can verify you.

The physical ID can be a government issued ID such as a drivers license, or a passport. To submit the ID you will need to email a color scan of the ID id@trustwho.com. This email box is only available to management within the TrustWho organization and is used solely for the purposes of ID verification.

What Trust Who ID Verification is:

• Verification to others of your name and email address (no other personal information is shown).
• Verification to others that you are responsible enough to have a Paypal account or Credit Card.
• Recognized by many online private-party traders making you a preferred person to do business with.
• Makes TrustWho Business sites more likely to sell to you.
• Prevents impostors from assuming your identity by having an official point-of-contact email address for your online transactions.

What Trust Who ID Verification IS NOT:

• Trust Who is not an antifraud service. People still get scammed by Trust Who members. While our being Trust Who verified can offer peace of mind to third parties, you still need to be careful with online transactions.
• This isn't a money making scheme. With a one-time fee of $7.50, Trust Who is not making any money by providing this service. The service we offer is a 100% community service geared towards adding safety to online transactions.

Get verified. It's fast, easy to do and it's only $7.50. We don't do this to make money. It's 100% a community service.

Our verification process uses a system that was developed by Shattered Crystal. Shattered Crystal is a sales site for game codes and other virtual products. When they first opened they had a very trusting sales system that allowed people to make purchases and it did not check to see if they were the real owner of the credit card or Paypal account. Once scammers discovered this system didn't do any checking the site lost thousands of dollars a day in theft. It forced the site to close and reevaluate how sales were done. Over the next few years they implemented changes to stop fraud. Today they have less than a ½% fraud rate. This is much better than any retail store. The system is so good that we can use it for the Trust Who verifications.

Virtual items sellers:
