So when I sent out my photocopy of my passport I wrote across it that it was for use only by the lawyer setting the estate in the setting up of the executor account.
I like that idea.
It's not perfect by any means. It is possible for an ID thief who has possession of it to scan it to a hi-reg JPEG and then carefully replace the bit of the text with what might be behind it. A lot of guess work, a lot of careful image manipulation which can only partially be automated. If I was to be the target of a serious State-Actor hack, then this expenditure of effort would be justified, but to hijack the passport image for anything under $millions, well, there easier, "low hanging fruit". Someone might do it if they had a personal grudge, but my ex- isn't that tech-savvy.
