Unjust claims aside, the company definitely required too much information of the OP for it to be a mere "security check". If you ask me, all of the copies of the information could result in a chance of identity theft. Like you said, this is an international criminal operation already. They only need the bare minimum to produce authentic looking ID's for anybody willing to pay. What with printer and photo editing technology what it is today, it is important that your government issued information remain with you unless you have to submit it to a recognized entity such as a school credit card company, bank, government agency, or any other institution that is traditionally recognized as always requiring the submission of a valid ID for their transactions. Writing companies do not fall under this category. If any of them ask for these information, cancel the order. Nothing good can come of submitting these data to them as proven by the events that unfolded throughout this post.
