How many businesses actually care? Isn’t the business a victim of fraud if a customer uses dishonest papers to gain admittance? Last I knew fraud vitiates everything.
- lupire 5y agoFraud does not vitiate statutory rape of a minor.
- smnrchrds 5y agoUsually in common-law jurisdictions, absolute liability (i.e. mens rea is not required and due diligence is not a valid defence) cannot legally apply to criminal offences. Is that not the case in your jurisdiction?
- toast0 5y agoDepends. My wife's identity was recently stolen, and the fraudster rented an apartment; it's not clear if the fraudster showed a fake ID in that process, but they may have. The apartment complex is likely going to be out rent for several months as this plays out, better vetting could have prevented that loss. If it's a bar, they might be on the hook for underage drinking if they don't do a decent job of checking. (PS, lock your credit reports)

- evgen 5y ago> Last I knew fraud vitiates everything. Not even close. If you take a fake ID to a bar in the US, get drunk, drive home and slam into a bus full of nuns just before you reach your destination then the bartender who served you will need a criminal attorney as well as the bouncer who checked IDs at the door and probably the owner of the bar. Strict liability applies here.
