Using a Fake Passport to Pass Verification | Experiment

[@TonyLewis42]

You needed to go a lot farther with your techniques. Things like the metadata of your photos clearly stated they were saved in photoshop and not a mobile device you needed to modify the meta data. The IP address of your computer was logged on the first attempt so you weren’t getting away with the second attempt. Also the MAC address of your phone was recorded on the first attempt. There were so many simple red flags you missed that any mid level scam artist would bypass

You're right. Looking back on this video, there are so many different things I could've done. We'll be doing another video in the future, I'm sure. Thanks for your comment!

You talked at the end of the video about analysis of pixels and advanced security features.

You admitted at the outset of the video that you're not sure about the proper format for the MRZ for the a passport of the identity that you were creating, and a single character being off has long enabled passport scanners to identify problems.

[@jecepede]

Dear mr Young ;-) Should the biggest take away of this not be : DONT EVER UPLOAD YOUR PASSPORT, ID OR FACE ! If the system you are trying to sign up on will ever get breached, your whole identity is out in the open and potentially in the wrong hands. "But the website needs it so they can offer their services" I hear people say..... May I suggest you find another website that does have his ducks in a row :-) And what's more: In a number of countries it is even illegal to upload such documents. In my country, The Netherlands, you are not even allowed to share your social security number with anyone exept goverment organisations. Since that number is on the passport, drivers license etc... you can't share those either unless you blatanly take out a marker and make everything black. And this will lead to yet another ban because you 'messed around' with your document. Cheeeeeeeeeeeers, Jecepede

[@CZghost]

SSN is essential for banking institutions tho, because they have to verify the identity of the person that's opening a banking account. Since multiple people can share the same name, the same date of birth and could also potentially share very similar appearance to each other (it is rare, but it may happen), and live in the same city, it's actually very hard for banks to verify your identity using only those informations. SSN however is unique to you and you only, which means that they can verify it is indeed you who is using their banking services. They can't of course share your personal informations with advertisers or literally anyone, they can only use them internally for processing to address you individually, and potentially offer you their own products and services which you might like. Do you want to tell me that banking institutions in Netherlands are not allowed to use SSNs for their internal purposes because they're not government institutions? And why am I talking about banking institutions? All of those services shown in the video are banking institutions that handle your money.

[@miawafdhal]

If you wanted to change your passport details, you at least need to check your MRZ check sum and secure image. It’s a pretty easy to be detected by the system since it doesn’t matched with the document itself. Btw, it’s pretty interesting video.

[@Sumsubcom]

Thanks Thomas for the comment. Good advice too. I might try and make bulletproof documents and try again to actually fool some of these systems. Must be possible one way or another.

[@KiinaSu]

Yeah I noticed that too. I know little about the exact sequencing of passport except the basic stuff you can tell from looking the passport. The last digit has to be a checksum and I would assume the part after the Passport Number and birthday would also be a checksum. Checking with my own passport that seems to be the case. And having the same checksum on the real and fake document would be a pretty big coincidence. Typing in the stuff provided into a checksum calculator it seems the last part should be a 9 instead of a 2. The passport number would be 9 instead of 7, Birthday checksum 3 instead of 6. (ofc the last part changes again after you fix the mistakes with the checksums for the other parts). Failing a single should put it into manual review in even the most basic system (checking if maybe the OCR has made a mistake), failing multiple of the check digits, I don't even think you need a human to look over that. Would've probably been more fruitful with a correct MRZ to see if the whole face thing even does a thing. A good amount of work put into making a 20 minute video but falling at the first hurdle. Also sidenote I love how he blurred the expiration date on the real passport, yet the MRZ for the expiration is still there.

[@CZghost]

@@KiinaSu The expiration date isn't really a private information, as well as the document creation. Date of birth however is. And if someone else has your SSN (which may vary in format in every country, my country for example uses YYMMDD/XXXX format, where YYMMDD is a date of birth in two digit year, month and day format - so let's say you were born May 5th 1998, then date of birth would be 980505 - except for females, the most significant digit of a month changes, simply to a month a number 50 is added, so if you are female, then it's 985505, and XXXX is a four digit random identified assigned to you - multiple people can have the same identifier, but then they cannot have the same date of birth - as for non-binary genders, Czechia doesn't really have a system for that, your SSN is assigned to you at the day of birth most of the time, and even if you transition to another gender, where surgery is a requirement, then you can have a new SSN being provided to you, because it reflects your date of birth and your gender - but non-binary people don't have a mechanism, which is why I believe the government wants to change it to be more like a US SSN), it's game over if they do. They can impersonate you and take loans on your name and not pay for them, and get you in trouble. If they have your full name, your SSN, and your full address, you're screwed. Anyway MRZ would be interesting to explore, learn how it is calculated, and try many different techniques to fool the MRZ validator. But I must stress that MRZ validator isn't the only check here. And pretty much all of those services have proceeded further into selfie check, which means that there might not even be an MRZ check in the first place, because validator only checks if the format is valid, not the informations, and if the format isn't valid, it may not proceed further and straight out refuse to continue. But the fact that even the checksums were all wrong, the app continued further, which means that there must have been some other issue preventing them to continue.

It's almost as if you are trying to hide that this video is secretly an ad to show the public that online identity verification works (which it doesn't, I tested it with just half an hour of work you just have to know what to to). It is so conventient that the provider who detects the scams are Sumsub (the identity verificatior) and the others are just not working (no otp or page hanging). Not to mention that this channel is called Sumsub literally the company who's business is to identify people and has benefit from it to show that it works.

[@PriestessOfDada]

Okay, so here's what you pass the face check. First download OSC. Then, download an AI package called the thin spline model. It's an avatar based deepfake. Take some video of yourself doing the head check. Make sure the video seamlessly loops before you process it. The way you make a loop is by playing the whole video forward, then backward. Now that you've got your driver video, apply either your fake person or the photo of your choice to the driver video. At this point, provided you didn't open your mouth, you should have a nice low resolution video. Cool. Drop that video into the frame extractor of choice. Blender's the easier for me, but you might prefer davinci or after effects. It does not matter. The important thing is that you have all the frames. Take your raw frames and process them through one of the sharp upscalers in Stable Diffusion. You're shooting for something 1020x1020. Re-assemble your video. Ideally, with innocuous room noise. Now, set up OBS, enabling the internal camera. Within your OBS scene, drop your looping video, and tell OBS to play it on loop. Make sure your canvas matches the image resolution of your upscaled images. Set OBS camera feed to your default camera within windows or mac, or whatever you're doing. And that's how you do that one. I don't know enough to help with any of the other stuff, but you get the idea

[@joenight9693]

Oh my goodness, where do I even start... First off, do a printout of the edited passport and then take another picture of the printout. It will require some fiddeling, however it will remove the tracepixels you leave when photoshopping the damn thing. Second Deepfake the videopart and show a screen to the camera. Third, VPN, VPN and yet another VPN. If your IP doesn't match the country you're supposedly in, that's the first red flag to any provider. Fourth, use a real persons picture. Fake people are being detected relatively fast by AI, as they're most of the times to perfect. And that's the primitive way to do it. Not even talking about running the phones OS in a Sandbox and simulating the whole input. Feel free to contact me, if you have further questions.

It sucks those places even require camera validation.

Just a couple of years ago (maybe longer) you could open an account on Coinbase without even adding an ID. 😟

The IP address wouldn't necessarily cause a problem because of VPNs 🤓 However, I'm sure my face is being stored on a number of different internal blacklists now...

@@Sumsubcom oh for sure. RIP your privacy. Time to get an actual new identity lol

You can just buy the photo of a genuine document and a video of the person moving their head online usually paypal scammers and any other banking scammer sells them

Nope! Depth detection means that faces need to be 3D. :)

@@Sumsubcom there is a trick to bypass that ;) you can research it

[@ContraVsGigi]

@@Sumsubcom But if the recording is 3D, can't you output a video as a fake web camera? See how they did fake online meetings with filmed clips of the same guy.

[@elasticharmony]

I actually believe that all these identity requirements show that the business that wirex us in is not legitimate, like a security camera they are useless to stop a pro who has a good plan to use their service for unallowed purposes. The standards are higher than just Photoshop but are not that high if you know hacking. It is all about how much you want to surrender to these financial services in hopes of the offered pie in the sky.

[@epipen22]

Is it possible that those companies have saved your live face video and added to their blacklist?

[@Nightslide]

I like how you can do this type of stuff in the UK, in Germany it's literally like that, if you even plan to do a video like this, and let the publicity know, that you are planning one like that, you would get sued, if you already did something like that, with a bit of bad luck you'll get life sentence (15 years). But nonetheless, great video, worth to sub to :)

[@pascalwiery7129]

Comment two years late, but anyway. This is completelty wrong. Document forgery has a maximum sentence of five years according to §267 StGB. If you forge documents as part of a gang that continuosly commits crimes together, the maximum sentence goes up to 10 years. But no ordinary person is ever going to be sentenced anything close to that. Creating this video would be illegal in germany, but i wouldnt be suprised if the charges would be dropped immediatelly by the prosecutor because there is no public interest in prosecution. Even if the prosecutor doesnt drop the charges, i am 100% certain there wouldnt be any jail time.

NFC verification of electronic layer is a key to successful and secure identity verification

[@DrGleb]

Well it's more obvious way to pass it: use your real face and photo, but fake passport data (name, address, document numbers and so on)

[@藤原広吉]

The MRZ code of the fake passport can not be identified by an MRZ scanner. What an awkward technique.

[@mrbateman2399]

As someone who's worked with Intelligence Agency field staff, there's loads of rookie mistakes in there. I'm not talking about EXIF meta data, or other Photoshop stuff as your skills in that regard are pretty sound. You've leaked a lot of revealing personal details that actually link to your real identity in these "fake" documents. You want to be careful as this might cause you problems in years to come if you apply for a mortgage. As well as credit checks, there is a "national hunter" database that is used that would have been able to correlate what you uploaded to your real ID documents held by the IPS. Also, using fake ID documents like you've done here are technically violating criminal law (which is punishable by 2 year sentence). Don't worry, you're not the first. Here another fun fact.... . Obama's birth certificate that he released in 2011 via the official Whitehouse website is fake (you'll see it's got "layers" despite the security paper). They probably did it on purpose to troll the birthers and Alex Jones nutcases.

It is worth reading up on the standard of the machine readable code as if you put in certain data the reader believes it is a testing document used to test their system and it can trick a lot of systems into not checking everything

[@tekkimariani]

Just wondering when 'your' passport says Paul Young Peak, where Peak is clearly the last name, why the hell are you typing in your name as Paul Young without the Peak? Even without further investigation there can't be a match. But interesting to see anyway. Also wondering isn't it illegal in the UK to even try to do something like this?

[@user-10021]

Does a fake also work on KZbin for the age verification? Or do they just close your google account? I’m way over the age limit but no way I’m feeding them my data

i wonder if wirex only failed the second time because it had already flagged that name, what about with a fresh name and even a fresh face? have someone else attempt to sign up and use their photo on the fake id?

this look like a joke because you provided your address, phone and your own picture. at this point just give your passport too.
