    Using Your Real name?

    Wondering if anyone knows for sure if theres any reason why I shouldnt use a fake name on a sportsbook where i am only making cash deposits through W.U.? W.U. doesnt care what name you use, and I presume the sportsbook would still send to the addres syou give, with whatever name you give, real or fake, correct??

    Sometimes they ask you to send a copy of ID when requesting a payout.

    Or is that only with CC deposits?

    I strongly suggest using your real name. Most books that I worked for if not all of them ask for ID copies when it comes to withdrawing funds. You don't want your money being tied up and can't cash it out. I really don't find a reason why you dont want to use your Real name. As long as you use a real top book out there there's nothing you need to worry about. If you come on Live chat at any page before you sign up and ask this question they might say is not needed at 1st glance, but you never know along the road that they might change their mind due to "random security checks"

    This is incorrect for several books. I've never used a CC in my life and several books have asked for ID verification before processing payouts.

    The sportsbook im using has already confirmed they will not ask for any ID for a payout if thr account has only made cash deposits.

    For deposits under 1000 your not required to give an ID. If they ask for one you just say you don't have it with you. The book won't ask for a license for a cash deposit, they shouldn't ask for it for a withdrawal either - as long as no CC deposits are involved. You do need an ID for a cash withdrawal. The only reason to use a real name is in case something gets messed up and you have to get your money back from **. Like you get a bad name or something. You can't get your money back without an ID.

    So when you cash out, they are going to send money to a fake name? lol. FYI ** asks for ID when you cash out
