I have been communicating with a "private Lender" who is willing to lend me funds for a particular project.  Having never met him, I'm looking for advise as to how to check him out for legitimacy.  He sent me a copy of his driver's license, but I'm still a bit skeptical.  I would really like to avoid "Identity theft" or any other "who knows what".  Any advice would be highly appreciated.  Thank you, in advance
