Could a person get a credit card in my name w/o my knowledge using my documents?

All you need to do is to check the URL it redirects to. Make sure it is authentic and starts with https and not http.
Even https can't be trusted.

 
Even https can't be trusted.

If url is exact and if https, then it can be trusted.

But if url is slightly different and then ssl cert is easy to get with letsencrypt. In world, 10 years back, it would have been slightly more difficult to get cert for fake websites.

It would be good if there was an easy way to show on browser if ssl is from letsencrypt or some paid service.
