So, a year ago I got some bitcoin equal to $150 from a sale of an internet domain (the buyer wanted to pay in bitcoin through blockchain.com and I said ok. I never had any experience with crypto; so don't blame me). I even fully paid my US taxes for the sale and declared it. Now recently, I moved that tiny bitcoin amount I had to their interest-earning account. Of a sudden, they sent me messages saying I'm associated with gambling services and I need to give them more of my personal info or they will suspend my account! I've NEVER EVER in my life had any single instance of gambling, let alone being associated with gambling services!!!
I replied to their emails and tried to explain and they just kept sending me template responses, asking for very sensitive personal info (bank statements, paychecks, proof of wealth etc.). And I'm sitting here wondering why!!! I then tried the chat service and it was even a more terrible experience. No proof, no proper response, and no respect! The guy in the chat just kept telling me that the compliance team can investigate when they want and I "need" to respond to them. No help at all!!
And I'm worried about providing my personal information to them. I don't think my info will be safe and secure with them if I give it to them. DON'T USE THEIR SERVICE! They seem like a legit scam.
