I guess you just have to look at it like this.
How would he or anyone else know the pic you send him is even you...
You could be getting a fake ID for someone else. In fact I imagine you could make a business out of it.
You take someones picture and cash and send it to the User on SR and he makes the cards for you...
Do like 10 or so and Im sure you wouldnt have to worry about him knowing which one was yours..
I mean you are using false info on the card so its not like someone can take your pic with the fake info and find you :)

and what would they do with that photo that seems so scary?

Facial Recognition buddy, that's what. When I got my 6 fake ID's for opening up various 24 hr access postal boxes around town, for each image (since it's my face), I slightly modified it in an attempt to defeat facial recognition software, but not so much that it wouldn't pass as my ID.
For Example, for Fake ID No. 1, I would slightly change the distance between my pupils. Fake ID No. 2, I lengthened my forehead, slightly, and so on and so forth. Many jurisdictions are using facial recognition for all newly issued ID's. Therefore, my real life image is or will be in a database, however should something go awry at one of my boxes, and the postal service scanned my ID upon renting the box and that image is submitted to authorities for facial recognition purposes, well, it may come up as a match, but a weaker one than had I got the id with simply my un-modified face photo.
Little things like this can help you from being the low hanging LE fruit.
