So I got all the way through the signup process, hit the send button -- and then got a bloody automated email saying "due to increased levels of affiliate fraud, your account will not be active until you fax a copy of two forms of picture ID to such-and-such phone number".
Yeah, right. I don't know these guys, I'm taking a huge chance on them being scamming assholes, and they want paper documentation from me? I don't think so.
I sent 'em a "yeah right" email, but I never heard back.
Moral: Yes you can go too far in pre-qualifying your affiliates. Although if you have a face and a name and a good rep, you could get away with quite a bit more.
