    Moneybookers Question...
    Just received this email today...I've been using them for awhile now with no problems, and they sent me this just as I received a payout from a book...literally minutes after. I have no problem with this, and I sent them the doc's yesterday..but I'm just wondering if this is standard procedure......for those of you that use Moneybookers, have they asked you for this before? The reason this is annoying is because my funds are currently frozen until they fully verify it...

    Thanks guys

              sometimes it can be a bit of annoying, but after that verification they will never ask for no more documents

                  Yup, it's all part of the SOP. Situation, seeing as you've sent the documents, I imagine your account will be unlocked very soon (If not already).....

                      your activity must be attracting attention ... what are you up to?, where are you from?

                        Moneybookers are regulated by the Fsa - yet if your account gets hacked and money is stolen they hold you responsible and will not recompense your loss, even though this is provided for in the fsa code of practice regulations.

                                      perhaps some of those non-sportbook transactions are with people who have come under notice ?

                                      I suspect that many eastern European customers are under more scrutiny than average due to higher levels of irregular / illegal transaction history from those countries.
