with the rise of identity theft, there is a huge demand in new innovative services to make sure that your online identity is safe. the myID idea is good in theory, but ur right, why would you give away all your important information to some site that just came out of nowhere? how safe is my information with them? i could be setting myself up. but before anyone signs up for myID service, take a look at JustAskGemalto's/A> tips/information on identity theft and internet security. its good to be aware of these issues before blindly signing up for a service like myID.

I have had the same difficulties with converting from dollars to euros. Sent a message via the contact us form a few days ago, but no response. Is there an email address I can write to?

It’s random so you could only know what the amount is, part of the verification process by making sure it’s actually your credit card.

The internet is not a Country. Companies and governments need to stop trying to Police the Internet except when it comes to Pedophiles and Myspace Sex-Offenders. Where is the Civil Liberty & Freedom ?

On the internet, nobody knows you are a monkey.Let keep it that way.

Hi Charles,

First of all goodluck with this venture. The only problem I see it would be very very hard to get people to signup for your service, since they have to pay.

Agreed! I wasn’t born long ago, but it wasn’t yesterday! Why should I trust them with such important and sensitive information?

I look at this as a paid version of what http://claimid.com/ has been doing for years. It could be useful but only if the verification process actually carries enough weight with someone to make a difference.

For right now, I think I will stick with the free version.

The need for a “validated” identity has been of interest since the early days of Internet commerce. I still expect this to mature at SOME point in the future. The concept is good. Security is required. Convenience is essential and VALUE to the customer is the key to success.

This is not a technology issue. Problem lies with business relationships between the relying parties. How do you “certify” to another party something? Who is liable? How do you make money on this?

There are some potential interesting “bundles” of features that may be appealing to end users. I’ve worked on a few

Would love to see movement in this area. Very interesting, good luck! Let us know how “acceptance” materializes.

For the US market, you should also have mentioned Honesty Online (http://www.honestyonline.com/). We verify identity using KBA (knowledge-based authentication) and also can do criminal background checks and employment/education verification. You can put your identity credential on your Facebook profile or personal web page. We offer an API to websites (such as online dating, employment, or social networking sites) where there’s value in knowing that the other person is who s/he claims to be. Perhaps most important, our simple sign-up process doesn’t require you to jump through any out-of-band hoops to check your credit card statement, wait for international snail mail, etc.
