Ya, so I think the big difference between Europe and the US is that you can open a lot of accounts online in the US so there is no opportunity to examine and copy a physical ID card. I can definitely see how that would raise the difficult of pretending to be someone else.
- kuschku 9y agoI just opened a bank account in Germany via an app. I had a choice between either using my eID for verification, or doing a video call and showing the ID into the camera (in a way that their systems can automatically verify the security measures). It took 20 minutes to go from nothing to having an account, and being able to move money to ans from it.
