I'm having the same problem, I recently subscribed to a mag from a reliable v3ndor from this site, and now cex.io flagged the transaction as suspicious and is asking verification details, like screenshots and email info on the destination wallet, I don't want to cause anyone trouble but I also don't want to get reported to the IRS or something..... how do I respond? Now I know not to send directly from the exchange, but I have to deal with this issue (their request for info) somehow, thanks for any advice!
This is a public forum so even if anyone had all the answers they're unlikely to post it here. Have you done a search of it here or elsewhere?
Maybe take a more assertive position with CEX and question their interrogations? You could start by asking them what the problem is. You could tell them the info is private and now irrelevant anyway as the chance to purchase 'what' (got a hobby?) you wanted has passed, it's now been sold. You could also say you would like the transaction cancelled now as the opportunity to buy 'whatever - your hobby' has passed and you no longer need the BTC? They might not like what you have to say, might even ban you, but afaik they have to give you back your money one way or another - but don't quote me.
And see what happens. And get back to us here and tell us how it goes?
My current take on it is the banking system don't trust the crypto world, it's a dysfunctional relationship - they are direct competitors for capital = profits. The crypto world aren't going away but with the banking system in the ascendant, and the crypto world seeming almost desperate for legitimacy they tune their algorithms for extreme detection of transactions potentially hostile to their aims, to stave off criticism from the banks/competitors and enhance their chances of acceptance into the mainstream (eventually).
And their policies are designed to be opaque to the inexperienced user - which is most of us - to minimise these incidences of apparent 'abuse/risk'. So when something goes 'wrong' we're not told what it is so we don't know how to fix it (or avoid it in future) except by giving the xch what they demand - or by trial and error, moving on when necessary, and poring over pages and pages of fine print, etc. (It's another language to me.)
And why would they report you to the IRS, or something, for what? Are you being a little paranoid? You obviously can't give a vendors details and expose yourself at the same time - that would be (your own word here).
Sometimes the only fix is to learn what you can from the experience and if you have to walk away and start again somewhere else better informed. Until the next time ...
Let us know what you do and how it goes?
