Sooo, they need a pic of your face to verify your acct Incase your acct gets hacked ?

With or without a mask? 🤔

Every site is moving to this “selfie” method of identity verification due to all of the identity theft going on. Some even want you to provide a selfie of yourself while holding up your drivers license along with a special crafted message that you write on a piece of paper.
Stupid or not, get used to it.
