Re: German AVS system

German AVS involves the surfer FAXING or sending a pic of two documents: A credit card and either their license or their passport.

That is a shitty system. Apparently it is a holdover from the brick and mortar porn stores where they also want to see those documents before admitting the guy into the store. Internet sites copy the method, but really it's not legal because that stuff could be faked so you don't really have any AVS. At least I don't think so.

It also gets around VISA "no AVS" rules because the CC is not charged, it is only faxed.

With ID theft what it is, I doubt surfers are gonna go for this anyway.
