I am very suspicious of marketforce[dot]com/uk. They want a passport picture and a scan of my ID i.e. passport!
Has anyone used market force? Is this site safe or is it a scam?
I cannot post pictures because I'm new, but this is the screen shot i.imgur[dot]com/XkrQA.jpg

If you are going to do an age verification then they need proof that you have acceptable ID to carry out the assignments. It's nothing to worry about. If you don't want to do the age verification assignments then don't send in your ID.:footie:

They are legit. It seems to be the new name for Retail Eyes, who are a long established MS company.
The passport scan is quite normal, it's how M S companies ensure they are employing someone with the right to work in the UK0 -

Well, technically, no, because their pay rate was so poor I decided not to accept their assignments, but I know a lot of people who do work regularly for them.0 -

Did you submit a scan of your passport/ID?0 -
No, as I am not doing age verification jobs. I'm too old. Anyway, I don't have any valid photo ID.osmanelmais wrote: »Did you submit a scan of your passport/ID?:footie: Regular savers earn 6% interest (HSBC, First Direct, M&S) Loans cost 2.9% per year (Nationwide) = FREE money. 0 -
