I recently won some money at an online casino. When I tried to withdraw my winnings, I was told I must send them some proof of Identification. They say it is standard online casino policy. Is this true or are they scamming me to send them my id and basically I should kiss the money goodbye? (I made the initial deposite using Neteller...)

It is not a scam. I had to send id to Mansion when i won some money on them. Many sites require it .... you can block out some sensitive information if you are worried, but if it is a reputable site, i wouldnt worry about it
To find out if it is a reputable site, I would recommend http://www.casinomeister.com/

I play poker online on several site each days, and do a lot of withdraw each months, never had any problem ever!, And yes they need your informations, but when you sign on a site you open an account and it's at that moment that you give your personnel identification, you didn't do that? Anyway you have a Neteller so you should be all set.
Take care

It it not a scam. Most casinos do require you to send proof of identity. This is to protect you from identity fraud, and from someone else taking your money.

Online gambling is illegal now, Congress passed a law establishing that some time ago.....might be a scam

Phone them and verify. Its usually protocol to ask for id.
