Powwow ID verification Sep 17, 2007

Dear all,

Just in case I can't come to the Powwow, should anyone of you is ID verfidied yourself (on your profile page, under Account Type, you can see a small tick and "Verified Member"), you may also apply to Verify other member's ID.

To do this, you need to submit a support ticket to ProZ staff. It may take a few days or longer, but surely is worthy of a tryicon_wink.gif

Dear all,

Just in case I can't come to the Powwow, should anyone of you is ID verfidied yourself (on your profile page, under Account Type, you can see a small tick and "Verified Member"), you may also apply to Verify other member's ID.

To do this, you need to submit a support ticket to ProZ staff. It may take a few days or longer, but surely is worthy of a tryicon_wink.gif

After you obtained this right, you may verify other members when they present to you:

1. A photo ID (Driver's licence, passport, ID card, etc.)
2. ProZ ID number - the number at the end of your Profile page URL. E.G. My URL is proz.com/profile/88537, then my ProZ ID is 88537.*

Members hoping to get their IDs verified, please bring with you:

1. A photo ID
2. ProZ ID number*

Hope I'm making things clear enough.icon_wink.gif

If not, please post your questions here.

Thanks.
Jianjun

* This is actually optional (not necessary) for ID verification but will be useful for reference by the ID Verifier. ▲ Collapse

One more thing about ID Verification Sep 17, 2007

Please make sure the name you used at ProZ (the one shown to other people) match the name on your Photo ID!! Otherwise you can't be verified!!

At least an ID card (身份证) Sep 20, 2007

You just need to show your Identification Card (there of course should be a photo on it, I believe.icon_wink.gif ) with a matching name as you used in ProZ.
