Question: Is this normal

Question

Is it normal for a sportsbook to ask for a picture of yourself holding your ID. I have sent my bank statement and drivers license to coolbet, they now want me to submit a photo of myself holding my picture ID.. Is this normal? Anyone else ever heard/come across this??

Thanks in advance.

Its pretty standard for most kyc services in crypto. I think I had to do it for pinnacle book

Never heard of it. Usually they just want to prove you are who you say you are... valid id and bank statement of some kind should be enough from my experience. &#xA;gl

@HomeDresser&#xA; Never. Sounds odd. But there is lots of cyber shit so maybe it&#x2019;s the new norm. Lol

LOL @ trainwreck&#xA; &#xA;I&#x27;ve never had to do that with a sportsbook. But, Coinbase required it when they verified my identity. It was several years ago, but I remember thinking it was odd at the time.
