Anyone here ever bought anything from Ebuyer?
I just ordered an external HDD from them. Went through the ordering process, then to the checkout and gave my card details. They then said - in the usual way - that I would receive an email confirming the order.
In fact I received three emails. The first acknowledging my order, the second requesting security information - which asked for:
"1) A scanned colour copy of the full picture page of your passport OR picture card of your UK drivers licence along with your passport or drivers licence number.
2)A utility bill that is at least two months old."It also said that the order had been cancelled pending receipt of the requested information.
A third email confirmed the cancelled order.
What on earth is going on?
Is this normal, or some kind of scam?
Either way they can keep their hard disk.
