I sent a scammer a photo of my driver's license or passport. What now?

1. Save the messages and note exactly which documents and personal details you sent.
2. Contact the issuing agency through its official website. Ask whether it can flag the document or recommends replacement.
3. In the US, freeze your credit with all three bureaus and use IdentityTheft.gov if your information is misused.

You receive unfamiliar account notices or identity checks. A leaked photo does not automatically require canceling an otherwise valid passport.
