I have ordered a used pentax-lens from wexphotographic.com. Today I got an email from
sales@wex.co.uk that made me very suspicious. What do you say?

To protect our customers against increasing levels of payment fraud we occasionally ask for name and address verification before dispatching some orders. We regret this has become necessary and we will continually review ways to reduce the number of genuine customers inconvenienced by these measures.
Name and Address Verification
So we can progress this order please could you
email a scan or photo of the payment card used for the transaction, blanking out the first 12 numbers (so we can verify you are in possession of the card) and the following documents;
- To verify your identity, we need either a copy of your driving licence or passport and
- To verify the address, we need either a copy of your driving licence, a bank statement or utility bill such as gas, electricity or land line telephone bill, dated within the last 6 weeks
We are unable to accept mobile phone, council tax, water bills or payslips.
Alternative Delivery Address
If you have selected alternative delivery address we require name and address verification for
both your billing AND delivery addresses. Where to send your Documents
Your documents can be scanned or photographed and emailed to
securitychecks@wex.co.uk.
It can take up to 1 business day for your email to be reviewed, which may delay the dispatch of your order.
If we have not heard from you
within 7 days of the date of this email, we shall assume that you no longer wish to proceed and the order will be cancelled.
We apologise for any delay this may cause to your order and if you have any questions on any of the above please call us on 01603 486413.
Many thanks,
Customer Services Team,
Wex Photographic
