Notary signing

Does anyone know of any legal problems with a party asserting that they have a notarized photocopy of certain id, representing that a third party is who they say they are? If I take someone's money, get a notarized copy of their id, and sign their PGP key, can I be sued? Obviously, I don't trust any non-lawyers to answer this question, but does anyone know of an encryption-aware lawyer to whom I could pay money for an opinion? -russ <nelson@crynwr.com> http://www.crynwr.com/crynwr/nelson.html Crynwr Software | Crynwr Software sells packet driver support | ask4 PGP key 11 Grant St. | +1 315 268 1925 (9201 FAX) | What is thee doing about it?
