FileIce Now Wants SSN

So, I logged on fileice today and they now want your social security number to be able to send payments to you.
If you are like me and didn't use your legal name you may very well be shit out of luck!
Thoughts?

Any real company would need this info to send out legit payments.

It seems a bit much for only paypal payments, maybe if they had wire transfer or checks as a payout option.

What the hell do you need a social security number for?

I never use those shitty things.

Either that, or your Tax ID

Well making a tax id will still need your social security number, but its a .gov so its more trusted.

Theres the link
If you read our forums, we will be supporting ACH, bank wire and checks starting from next month, and this "new regulation" is in part, to support these new payout methods. If you entered a fake name, contact RadarX, or [email protected] to change it. If you live in the US, you have to provide a valid SSN, or else we won't be able to pay you. We require you to submit your SSN because we need it for tax purposes. If you give us a fake one, you'll be the first to know about it when the IRS comes banging on my door. If you're under 18, you technically shouldn't even be using the site ^^
Ok, so if a random user from fileice is not from USA, he still must to provide the SSN number?

If you read on fileice it says to put all zeros if you are from outside of the US.

Shouldn't you add support for Tax ID? it seems safer for most people
In portugal we have SSNs, and I quit from it. Im not sharing my info with anyone, even for 60$

You don't have to be 18 to do taxes. You can provide a legitimate SSN even if you're 12. You will just need your parents help to pay taxes at the end of the year.

If you don't want to submit your SSN, we can't force you to, but that also means we can't pay you.

Your social security numbers are safely encrypted in a database. FileIce LLC is a legally incorporated business, and we did not spend over a thousand dollars obtaining an LLC just to scam people.
