re: stars ID verification e-mail
They have requested photocopies of either a drivers license or a passport + photocopy of a bill with name and address on it. This is a first, I think.
thoughts?

they did this to me too.
they accused me of being in connection with some guy I have never heard of though, which was really strange. I hadn't even had a single HH with him in my database.
I just did what the asked and it's been all good since.

I got one today also:

As a Supernova, you are one of our most important players and consequently it is necessary that we request your assistance with our responsibilities and to champion our efforts to make PokerStars one of the safest, crime free and responsible online poker sites in the World.
To help us achieve this it would be most appreciated if you could provide the following documents at your earliest convenience for verification purposes:
- A copy of the front and back of your government issued photo ID, an example of which would be a passport or driving license.
- A copy of a recent utility bill or bank statement clearly showing your full name and address as registered.
You may provide the requested documentation by email, to verification@pokerstars.com, in the form of either a scanned copy or a clear digital image. We hope you understand the nature of our request, and we look forward to receiving your documents shortly.
Finally, we would like take this opportunity to thank you in advance for your continued cooperation and ongoing support.

I have to do it now because I opened up more than one account. Ive had shit luck trying to fax the information into them. Ive tried for the past few weeks several times and everytime theres something wrong on their end, whether its busy, no answer or a bad line connection. Also Ive tried faxing from at least three different locations and fax machines.

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.

every kinkos has a scanner, and so do most places that develop photos. In the photo places its often a kiosk that will burn it to disk or load it on a usb key chain for you.

Do you have a digital camera?
Take a pic of your documents and upload to your computer. I've done this in the past.
