Asking for recommendations in how you might be getting around ID verification on websites and online marketplaces?

I want to be able to use my local online marketplace, but I keep getting asked to provide ID verification or my ads for second hand items dont recieve as many views as a result?

Edit: when referring to online marketplaces I was referring to second hand marketplaces like Carrot, Kijiji, Craigslist, Facebook.

Ya it's really starting piss me off as online marketplaces worked for years with no ID verification. Everyone just used online aliases and everyone was happy.

I keep getting nagged to verify so my account can reach more buyers and so sellers can see I am "real". Don't feel like uploading a drivers license or passport but I can't find a easy way around it. Unless I just stop using the site all together I suppose.
