Considering the FDA is now requiring it, it should be assumed that EVERY US based e-cigarette company is doing or will soon be doing checks.
Well, you know the saying about assuming anything. But I would like to have a choice if I want to be subjected by any vendor to any AV company who has in their business model the 'rights' to sell my info to third parties for their company profits.

In response to an inquiry of a new.2.me vendor as to which system they use ( bluecheck- Veritad), they replied "We use an EVS system :)"

Meaning they don't want to name them now??
Here is my attempt at answering that question

and a couple of posts down are the links I found.
This may save you some time.

I'm confused. I thought EVS WAS an AV service??? I have EVS next to ecig.com
Suggestion....on your list put something that points to page 5 of this thread for an explanation of what EVS is. Or
Str8vision explanation on page 16.

@tmcase ecigitty is requesting the last 4 numbers of SSN. I was almost happy for a moment.

Age Verification

They say
If we cannot verify your age during checkout you must manually verify your age.

For Manual Verification will need to provide:
  • Birthday
  • Last 4 Digits of your Social Security Number
  • ID Upload
I have ordered from a Veratad using site (MVS) and I didn't have to enter last 4 of SSN because they were able to verify via public records.

I placed an order yesterday with My Freedom Smokes. I don't know what AV they used, definitely not Blue Check. I was just asked for my Name & address as it appears on a government issue ID. No phone number SSN or anything else. I did encounter a hitch though I thought might be helpful to others. When I put in all my current correct info, I was told they were unable to verify my identity. I was given the option to upload my Drivers license. I didn't want to do that. I then read why the software may not be able to verify me. If I had recently moved, married, divorced etc I was asked to try the old information that didn't appear on my license. I divorced almost two years ago, and immediately legally took my former name back. Again, almost two years ago. I tried the AV again with my former married name, success! Obviously outdated info. But other than that hassle free. My order is on the way.

Age Verification

@Koolkiz see above at Jugband's post. There may have been something that didn't quite match with what they were seeing with the info they found.

Sorry this happened to you :(
