Blocks your account

I had signed up a few years ago, and never used this service. Then recently, they decided that "for security reasons" (always the same story with all of these), I was supposed to send a copy of my most recent valid ID. I was curious, because I genuinely didn't remember what company this was, and I logged in, and then I remembered I looked at it once and never came back, because it wasn't for me. Well, well, the whole CRS/Facta thing is just not prepared for the 21st century. It's 2025, people move, become nomads and stuff. So, it just happens that I am 1000s of km from the place I declared to be my "permanent residence". I could also just be on holidays... But... NO! "Because you've logged in from a "weird country", we've decided that your account has been compromised and we're blocking it until you send us a document proving you actually live where you said you do" But if you were naive enough to give these guys your money, don't log in from outside your home or you may lose your funds.
