License Number, please reply

Alright heres the deal, i am going to be buying something from a guy that i found on the internet, but to buy it he needs to confirm my age, 18+
So, i sent him a scan of my license, with my address and drivers license number and signature erased, just to be safe.
This guy emails me back and says that he NEEDS my license number to sell to me.
Is there anything bad that he can do with that, like identity theft or the whatnot. I'm just sketch about giving out info like that, and it seems illogical that he would need that to confirm im 18+ given that my birthdate is right there on the license.
SHould i not give him that info?
(I'm also not sure about this deal because he's selling this stuff at about half price of what it usually goes for, so it seems fishy) I know the product is good because my friend bought from him, but gave him their full license info
Just wondering if its safe or not
Thanks

Doesnt sound right to me. A good test would be to mildly call him out on it and monitor his response.

Don't give it out.
You don't need a license number to verify age.
For people who don't drive, you can get a state ID. They don't have "license numbers" on them.
If the guy won't accept that you're 18+ then forget it, buy else where.

Oh but they do, and there the same as your DL# when you get your DL.
But no he doesn't need it, a scan of your DL with your DOB should be plenty

Where I am from the last two digits of the birth year are the 8th and 9th digits of my DL#. I am fairly certain that your name, DOB and some other information is coded into this number. ie, its not a reference number. One of the math teachers at my old high school cracked the code as a college student. If you dont have your DL# on your checks, you should expect for the cashier at most stores to write it down. That said, I would never ever give my DL# out over the net.

The DL 'code' isn't secret. I used to know it but I forgot most of it. It's basically a description of you, eye color, sex, age, etc. Just ask anyone at DMV.
Couldn't you just scan your birth certificate to verify your age? My friend had to scan his driver's liscense to buy N2O cartridges, but it was with a reliable company, so he wasn't worried.

All states are addopting the system due to federal pressure, my state is always the first to follow California in new legislation. We have barcodes as well a few states have a magnetic stripe and other have both, very few if any states will have none of these
