I am not familiar with the ambassador process. But someone just asked me: " If I do not have a photo id yet, can i send a pic of my school id"?

Is this a normal process, or is someone trying to exploit this site for nefarious reasons?

Wel that user wanted to know if it is necessary to send his Photo id because he wants to apply for being an Ambassador,its a normal requirment for ambassador position...I don't know if we can still apply for being an Ambassador.

yeah, so if the application process is not been started ... i havent seen any flashing signs for it ... the activity still seems suspect to me.

anonymous · Answer

I think u can still apply because there was a user last night asking about it and Poopsie post a link in chat for the application so i think the think might still be open.

I will be running another call for Ambis.  At that time, you will have to send a phot id (school, driverslicense state id etc) to contact@openstudy.com.  I will post the url for the application on the site.  Thanks for checking @amistre.
We need the photo id to confirm the true name and identity of Ambis.  This is not a scam.  This information is not used for any other purpose.
Since Ambis represent OS, we need to know them well!
