Hi guys,
Bit of back story, ordered my laptop on April 10th and still in Pre Production (13th day) - how long do I have to wait?!
I received the following email this morning to my surprise. Has anyone else had this??? They could do anything they want with all that information, they could practically go online and get a loan in my name as they already have my debit card details too from the purchase (& sub order made this week).
Cheers,
Paul
Dear Paul ******,
Thank you for your order (number: ******) and welcome to www.pcspecialist.co.uk.
To help me process your order as quickly as possible, please can you reply to this email and send me
• a copy of either the driving licence or passport of the cardholder. If this is not you, please ask the cardholder to provide this directly, quoting your order number
• a bank statement or recent utility bill (in order to verify the billing address)
• If the address to which you wish to have your order delivered is a work address please also provide the company name and telephone number.
In reaction to a recent spate of incidents where credit and debit card details have been lost, this is a routine security check to verify the owner of the credit/debit card and whilst the production of your order will not be held up by these checks, it will not be dispatched until they are finalised.
Please note failure to provide this information within 7 calendar days will result in the cancellation of your order.
Your assistance is appreciated in our strive to reduce credit card and identity fraud.
Kind Regards,
