Passport scan online, what are the consequences?

Let's say a scan of my passport, the first pages and registration turned out to be on the network.
What could be the consequences for me and should I urgently go to write a statement about the loss / replacement?
Suppose at the security posts of all enterprises they require a scan of a passport or some official document - which ones can be presented without consequences? Will a car license fit?
PS By "consequences" I mean - issuing a loan in my name / any illegal actions and machinations.

Loans, fast money, hosting accounts, SIM cards, bank accounts and cards, fake offices, re-registration of offices for these data, fake sales of goods and services, domains, social media accounts. And all this for the needs of scammers or concealing a crime. The list could go on forever.
The original can be drawn from a copy of the passport. Keep this in mind too.
Do you need it? Change your passport.

If this question worries - "lose" your passport and get a new one. The state duty is not a very big price for personal peace of mind and healthy sleep. And then you can show the old, invalid passport to the watchmen and post its scans on the Internet.
The main thing is not to confuse and not present it to the police, for example)

Register for public services https://www.gosuslugi.ru/329476 and periodically ask for your credit history, through them this service is free. If you see a "foreign" loan, then you will need to figure it out, here is an example https://www.leonidvolkov.ru/p/306/
You can also read this article https://journal.tinkoff.ru/news/kredit-history-gos ... paranoia is definitely useless here, just check.
At security posts and receptions, most often, they ask for an identity document, and this is not only a civil passport, but also rights, a foreigner, a military man, etc.

Account confirmation on dating service sites :) Of course, it is not as relevant as, for example, a issued loan - but it can turn out to be much more unpleasant in terms of consequences - after all, it has long been known that it is quite difficult to wash off shit.
Sims, fast money.
Domains at registrars.
Offices can hang.
Again, loans are, of course, necessary to run into a bank that works so risky, but ... there is a danger. Especially if the scan of the place of registration was leaked, paired with the first page.

Don't show your passport. The rights have the same status for any "guards"
The second point that I use is to send any BC security guards to ***** with a request to show documents. They do not and cannot have such powers.
The only exceptions are state institutions, but they don’t suffer such x-her

Does the public here not read Zuckerberg?
there with Alfa-bank hits all year, from this to issuing a loan in the MSC of the region for data from the Urals or to the east (two months of history, I can’t find it), scans, alas, are in demand and not always possible (just for dating or foreign maps it is possible) to get off abroad
