What do you mean is it scrap now? Can you provide them with what they want?

send in the info they requested or move on to next stealth account

The sale of iphone is likely what caused you risk.

Well i can not provide them with this when its a stealth account.
1. i don't have the id to send them which is a driving licence

2. i don't have the proof of address i would need a utility bill for this address when i don't
live there.

3. i can not provide proof of ownership for the iphone because it is a used iphone and i do not
have a receipt for it.

I think it was the price of the iphone because i sold an iphone a week ago that was faulty for £65 and this one was for £160 buy it now.
Or it could have been the i put a stock photo in.

The stock photo you used - was it just something you googled / copy-paste from Apple website? That would def be a bad flag.

They never asked for an invoice of the item listed, they just want the proof of it being in your possession.
You should write your user-id on a paper and take a picture of it with the phone to send, i could be wrong though.

no agreed, if its just one phone, your hand and user id holding it is fine, they are not asking for supplier invoice. If you have receipt, give it, if not say its a gift.

as for other docs, well...
