The Netherlands and the United States seize online fake ID trading platform VerifTools

According to BlockBeats, on August 31, Dutch and U.S. law enforcement agencies have seized online fake ID trading platform VerifTools, a market that sells fake ID documents through cryptocurrencies for as low as $9, making it one of the largest suppliers of deceptive identity documents in the world. Veriftools requires users to upload passport photos and enter fake data. Website operators will use this data to generate fake ID documents, use advanced technologies such as holograms and ultraviolet ink, which is almost the same as real ID documents. In the end, they use cryptocurrency to pay for the cost of forging ID documents. The operation seized 23 servers, two domain names used in the VerifTools market, and a promotional blog.
