Answer by wolf
How can we fight against these who perpetrate fraud and buy these cards if the laws are not being enforced. Our government has let this identity theft and fraudulent I.D’s go way to far, They need to prosecute the ones who make these I.D’s and the ones who buy and use them. I guess they did not know it was against the law either.
