ID.me is requiring unrealistic verifications for me to legitimately access my IRS account. There should be consequences for legitimate access blocking. Class action suit anyone?

Easy!
September 13, 2022

It was easy to set up an account using ID.me. The system asked me to take a photo of my driver's license, front and back. The system did a face scan. I had to do it a second time and be in better lighting to get the face scan done. Easy-peasy!
