				Mr. *redacted*, 
 
We inform you that we do not accept edited scans/photos of your documents. 
 
We kindly ask you to submit your Passport one more time, making sure that the uploaded scan/photograph does not contain any watermarks and that all the real margins of the document you submit are clearly visible and not touching the margins of the scan. 
 
You can check the examples regarding how the scan/photo should look like in Profile Settings >> Identity confirmation. 
 
Do not hesitate to contact us if you need further assistance. 
 
Best regards.

 Such a perfect image of original documents is perfect for ID fraud. Fuck that. 
Paxum should take the security of their customer's personal ID documents seriously. 

 If a customer wants to ensure their document will not be re-used then a watermark shouldn't be a problem. 
Of course there is no reason to be suspicious when every Paxum support rep uses Paxum22 or Paxum23 as an identifier, no name or anything. It's a bit rich anonymous reps demanding the handing over of perfect unadulterated scans of ID documents.
