You need to submit a passport picture though. It's probably easier to fake a badly lit picture of a passport than an actual passport though...

I have opened many online bank accounts using only my social security number. I open bank accounts frequently for the sign up bonuses and haven't ever been asked to submit photo ID online.

Not for all of them. All I had to do to get a Starling account was send them a video of me saying my company name

Lots of people post their passport photos when travelling on instagram, you could quite easily "borrow" one of them to send to the bank.
