Waterford, MI asked in Employment Law and Identity Theft for Michigan

Q: My question is, is this legal?

I just got a request for information from a job app. They sent me a fill-out request to my phone, asking for an image of; my Driver's Lic, back and front. My car, back and front pictures. Pictures of me personally. THEN, they want my physical home address. Normally I just put the street, they demand house numbers, and they want my insurance policy number, and my most recent payment amount. This is for a medical driver; using my own car. Moving "medical things." I assume studies and samples.

A: A Michigan attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for three weeks. Until you discuss the legality of the questions (many employers nationwide do request license and other forms of proof as part of their credentialing), an important issue would also be whether your insurance carrier would cover you for your use of your vehicle here. Good luck
