Verified Information Member VIM

Members with New Status 
Normal registered users who sign up to use the free services are still relatively anonymous, we do not really know who they are, although we do have their ISP email and other contact details. Many other details are still not verified, such as their name, Address, phone number and mailing details. They will remain as new members either till they apply to become a VIM member or have traded in our community for three months and received 20 positive feedbacks and maintained their account in good standing. At which time they will become Basic Verified Information Members.

What is a Basic Verified Information Member?
All basic verified users will have a special icon attached beside their User ID in all their trading activities. This serves to tell members that they have been verified by time and shown honest dealings and are serious in trading with other members.

What is a Bronze Verified Information Member?
A Bronze Verified Information Member is a member who has registered an account with us either voluntarily or for the fact that they do not have a ISP provided e-mail address, and submitted a personalized check and 2 other forms of identification such as a drivers license for further verification.

All Bronze verified users will have a special icon  attached beside their User ID in all their trading activities. This serves to tell members that they have been verified by Ezead.com and are serious in trading with other members.
