Personally I'm with the OP - this is a load of horsefeathers as far as I am concerned.

In the UK I hit a similar blockage in the Spring and checked with my Neighbourhood Watch, Anti Fraud Group and the Local Police - all advised against sending copies of either my Driving Licence, my Passport or even my local Government issued OAP Photo Identity/ Bus Pass in case of Identity Theft.

Yes that's right folks - OAP means old age pensioner ( (I'll be 70 in April coming ). I now only deal with companies who do not put me through these hurdles; as far as I am concerned I will not be penalised because some young prat overdid something.

And yes I was young once and bought cigarettes under age and drank in pubs ditto - only in those days we did not penalise/inconvenience everyone just because of a few daft youths ( and yes I was one ) did daft things.

Back in the day Paypal would not do business with ecig vendors. All tobacco products were banned on paypal. I'm still not seeing many vendors who take it.

The vendors I deal with for hardware take PayPal without issue. I don't buy vendor juices, just hardware and nic. Nicotine is definitely a tobacco product, at least the types we buy. I suppose that synthetic nic would/could technically be classified as a non-tobacco product.

Not if you use it in vape related gear, even our orings are considered a tobacco product according to the FDA.
