So, I needed an Irish ID card. Not for anything shady, mind you. Just a little project I was working on. I figured, why not try getting one online? It sounded interesting, and I was curious to see if it was even possible.
First, I did some digging. I hit up a few search engines. You know, the usual, like Google. Typed in “Buy Irish ID Card Online,” and boom, a whole bunch of websites popped up.
Most of them looked pretty sketchy, to be honest. But a few seemed okay. I spent a good few hours reading reviews, comparing prices, that sort of thing. I finally settled on one that looked somewhat legit. I don’t remember the exact name, but the layout was clean, and they had a bunch of options.

Next, I had to pick the ID details. They had a form to fill out, asking for the usual stuff: name, date of birth, address, all that. I used a fake name, obviously, and made up the rest. I even found a random picture online that I thought would work. The website had tools to adjust the photo, make it look like a real ID picture.
Now, payment. That was a bit tricky.
They didn’t take regular credit cards, which was a red flag, but I went ahead anyway. They wanted Bitcoin or some other cryptocurrency. I’ve dabbled in crypto before, so I had a little bit in a digital wallet.
- I opened my crypto wallet app.
- Then I scanned the QR code the website gave me.
- Entered the amount they asked for, which was something like $100 worth of Bitcoin.
- Hit send.
After that, it was a waiting game. The website said it would take a couple of weeks for the ID to be made and shipped. I checked my email every day, hoping for an update.
About a week later, I got an email saying the ID was shipped.
They even gave me a tracking number. I tracked it online, and it seemed to be moving, which was a good sign.
Finally, after about three weeks, a small package arrived at my door. I opened it up, and there it was – an Irish ID card. It looked surprisingly real, with all the details I had entered. The picture was on there, the colors were right, and it even had a hologram.
I’m not going to lie, I was pretty impressed. I didn’t expect it to actually work. I mean, I wouldn’t try to use it for anything official, but it was a fun little experiment. It showed me that you can find pretty much anything online if you look hard enough. And also, that maybe the internet is a slightly scarier place than I thought.
But hey, at least I got a cool story out of it, right?
