How to prevent Facebook asking for ID
If you buy personal FB accounts, how do you prevent FB from asking for ID after you added the creditcard?
I encountered the problem after adding the creditcard. Dont know how to deal with it, because they ask for the ID of the account

I think you can't...
It happens all the time, they call it "risk management". You dont' necessiarliy need to upload an ID you can also identify yourself in other ways, they give examples like a school card, card for a library etc.

But the personal account is not on my name, I bought it. So how do I identify myself as this person?
Or do they want the ID of the creditcard holder?

They want id of the creditcard holder but it is also a flag if the creditcard holder is not the same person as the account holder

Probably that caused them to ask your id because it is possible that they think the accoint holder stole your creditcard

You must provide them with real id of credit card owner. Otherwise, its considered credit card fraud. There are very strict penalties for same. You been warned. Stay safe.

Alright, so can I use my own ID with my own creditcard on multiple fake personal accounts?
How does everybody use their CC with with multiple accounts?

You can use your own id with your own credit card. Everyone else having multiple account must be violation FB's tos and gaming their system in blackhat way.

If you BOUGHT an account and needed to verify your ID, then there is no chance of proceeding further. It's actually happened to me recently once. You'll need to buy another one or make your own, and you can't use that credit card again if you tried to add it.

There are
generally two types of accounts:
Personals: This would come from someone's personal Facebook such as me advertising from the account I use with friends. These are the ones that get hit with ID checks. My account gets disabled, I submit my Driver's license with details of the campaign and maybe I'll get the ads account back. If you are using your friend Bob Jones Facebook account, you need to send in Bob Jone's driver's license
Agencies: This is what you're describing. Agency accounts have no personal profile attached so they never get hit with the ID check. Instead you'll get banned from too many reports, or triggered Facebook's 50 other warning signs.
Problem with agencies is they can be pricey. $2k is what some charge for a $500 limit account. The other issue is most of them are scams right now. You send $5,000 to someone via wire transfer, they take your money and disappear. If you get your $5,000 worth of accounts, you need to profit over $5k before the account gets banned.
Facebook is an
amazing source of traffic, but I only recommend it these days if you have someone showing you the ropes. The amount of time it takes to learn the Facebook game as a newbie, you could be a killer in mobile or another vertical.

Thanks Charles. But when does a personal account gets hit with a ID check?
And if the personal account is on Bob Jones, but my CC is attached to it, does FB want the ID of Bob Jones or from me? (because the CC is on MY name)

When? There's no set time. I find it usually happens immediately after spending thresholds increase. Example you get bumped to $350 spend a day, boom ID check.
The personal account should be Bob Jones and your CC attached should say Bob Jones as well. When the person checks, ID - account name - CC name all matches.

Thank You...... I was about to start as a complete newbie, using FB. Which Verticals do you recommend apart from Mobile for newbies right now? I'd thought the beginners guide actually said to stay away from mobile for newbies? Thoughts appreciated.

@ProgramTrader - things have changed in the last year particularly on the mobile front. There are some very newbie-friendly platforms out there now, and it's generally become a better space for newer affiliates, if you have a reasonable budget.
