If a person shows you an obviously fake ID, what action should you take?

  1. Confiscate it

  2. Call the police

  3. Ask for another form of ID

  4. Ignore it

The correct answer is: Confiscate it

If a person shows you an obviously fake ID, the correct action to take is to confiscate it. Fake IDs are illegal and using or possessing one can result in serious consequences for both the person using it and for the establishment serving them alcohol. By confiscating the fake ID, you are enforcing the law and protecting yourself and your establishment from potential legal issues. It is important to handle the situation with professionalism and understanding, but ultimately confiscating the fake ID is the responsible course of action in this scenario. Calling the police could be an option if the situation escalates or if the person becomes agitated or refuses to leave the premises, but the immediate action to take is to confiscate the fake ID. Asking for another form of ID is not necessary when the current ID presented is obviously fake, and ignoring the fake ID would be irresponsible and could result in legal consequences for the establishment.
