Ebay asking for an ID to verify info

[positive_entropy]

I recently got this email from ebay:


We understand this may be inconvenient, but we’ve identified a possible discrepancy with the information provided at registration and need your assistance. Until we're able to resolve this matter, your account will remain restricted and you will be unable to buy/sell items, or engage in member-to-member communication.

To help remove the restriction, please provide a color image of your passport. If you do not have a passport readily available, please provide an alternate government-issued ID (front and back).



AM I SCREWED?

Sounds like you are...

You are not using a crappy VPN, are you?

At this point, I suggest making a new set of accounts maybe a couple just to be sure.
Follow the steps in the stealth guide and make sure you use IPBurger Residential IP when creating the accounts.

Can you tell us a little about the account? Like age, feedback, and category of products you were selling?

Was this on a MP account?

The account was new. I have a GPU i was selling so no feedback.

YOu can't sell a branded item off the bat.

Like I said, follow the stealth guide and make sure you use IPBurger Residential IP when creating the account. Be consistent and don't sell branded Items aymore

Is there a way around sending them my ID?
