Good question. When credit cards get stolen, the banks push the cost of re-issuing customer cards onto the company that got breached and the PCI (Visa/Mastercard) also fine breached party. What happens when it's a country that has to re-issue thousands of documents due to breach?https://twitter.com/SimonZerafa/status/1081293857667596288 …

What can a bad guy do to monetize a passport number? Every (foreign) hotel I stay at makes a copy or scan of my passport.

I'm thinking less about a bad guy and more about a government wanting to stop specific people from traveling. Release their passport numbers, add them to watchlists, etc. will cause those specific people travel inconvenience.

Hmm, I don't follow, under what circumstances would a government need to buy passport dumps on the darknet?
