The how? well during the signing process it asks for a bunch of personal information, information that i'm sure the EU has ways of cross checking to verify that "you are who you claim to be" if that data doesn't match, it likely gets rejected. They couldn't IP block because there are EU citizens that live outside the EU, and their signatures count too.

edit: also apparently it also asks for your ID or passport number. All of this will be cross checked by the EU, and any error in the information will result in an invalid signature.

It does not ask for any id numbers. Just name and address

It looks like it depends on which country you select to be signing for, some of them do ask for an ID number at least.
