Now this came up after a discussion regarding deposits and verification. Now deposits, I get where providers are coming from. A little insurance, and if things go south or they are a no show you walk away with something, and if they don't wanna do it then they probably didn't have the best intentions anyway.
I get it, it's just personally unless they accept bitcoin or cashapp I'd rather not do anything electronically, leaves too much of a paper trail.
However when it comes to verification, that's when I start to get a little confrontational. So wait. You want me to give you my real name, a picture of myself, AND the place that I work?
Ok one doing that would make things like burner phones completely pointless and two, why should I risk my private info when you wont. It would be one thing if you were a long established agency, but if you're an indie? That's just multiple red flags for me.
I would think there would be a mutual understanding that both parties would wanna remain anonymous, but apparently that's not the case. Like am I missing something here?
