Sounds like a good plan

Could well be a dodgy one that they leave you with. Organised criminals may well have more than one passport...and can you tell a good forgery from a real one?

That's why I think a pic is a better option...you don't have to tell them to bring anything specific, just take one when they arrive...

Yeah, it could be forged, but as long as the picture looks like them at least you have a photo, and I would have thought that at least some of the guys likely to try a scam like this wouldn't be far enough in to have fake passports so at least you might be narrowing down your target audience so to speak. Plus if they give you the passport then it'll have their finger prints on.

passport then it'll have their finger prints on.

...unless they use "Mission Impossible" style rubber faces and "James Bond" style fake fingerprints.....

then they are in the wrong game if they have the technology unless ripping off RS4s is just for sport

Might be better for someone else to take the picture securely from a house window perhaps or even camcorder the whole thing, remember to zoom in on the face!

Because if there willing to take your car, they’ll probably force the camera off you also.
