Many of you already know that I work in a bank.
Many of you would probably be upset if you knew how many people complained about being asked for ID.
I have started explaining it in the following way when "This is for your protection" doesnt work.
"So I should let anyone who wants to take money out of your account do it?" This usually gets the point across.
People are supposed to verify to prevent or at least minimize fraud. I have however caught the following in tha past year. Names have been changed...
John Doe II wants a cash advance.
John Doe II presents a credit card embossed John Doe.
Should I do this transaction???
NO
Why?
How do I know John Doe II isnt trying to pass me dear old dads card?
Truth be told no merchant should take my credit card.
Why? (Stop the bad thoughts)
My license has my FULL name
My card? Shortened version of first name. They dont match.
