Hah, reminds me of an old Married with Children episode where Al Bundy is going to the cable provider's customer service office to buy access to a Pay-Per-View event, and, after going through a lot of hassle, is asked for his ID, which he doesn't have on him.
I don't remember exactly what happened after, but my immediate reaction was, "lol what? Why do they care about whether this is really Al? At worst, it just means some random benefactor is paying their own money so Al gets to see the PPV."
(IIRC he was paying cash too so there wasn't even an issue of CC fraud.)
