Huib,

The WMF is not responsible for private mails you send to anyone. The only
people who "officialy" can receive a copy of any ID you may have are
Philippe <http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Philippe_%28WMF%29>,
Christine<http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Christine_%28WMF%29>or
Megan <http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Mhernandez>. If you send a copy
of your ID to anyone else is not WMF problem.
