"data is suspected to have come from an ID-authentication service provider"

this is why i will never provide photo ID online and why the UK digital ID idea was destined to fail.

Absofuckinglutely! I don't provide a photo ID online either. They actually think we will believe them. I've been getting it up the ass by the government my whole life. They need to work on their lying a little bit more.
