      Back when I worked in retail someone tried to get a credit card with a fake “gov” ID. We called the cops. A detective showed up real quick and confiscated the ID while interrogating the guy.

      Tried to get the “provider” out of him and cut him loose. Told us someone has been peddling the IDs and they were on it.

      That was 20 years ago let alone now. So ymmv on that side hustle.

      I’d check with a lawyer before opening shop. I suspect there’s no law against this, but it may fall under a genetic defrauding the mentally impared.

      You know it’s just a matter of time before someone sells you out to get a plea deal.
