Hosting providers get an obscene amount of fraudulent sign-up attempts, including attempts where they try to assume the identity of the person they have acquired the passport scan/photo of.

I don't like it, but it's very understandable.

I once saw a scammer upload Jason Bourne’s passport to try and validate their VPS account at the provider I worked for lol
Not the actor but Bourne's passport from the movie? Interesting.
