Hi everyone 👋
Just wanted to give some background info here. Stuff like this happens all the time with customers of all banks. Some more than others but these checks are and will be intensified with time. Both fortunately and unfortunately banks are obligated by law to investigate their clients when (possible) striking payment behavior has been identified. This can be any type of transaction for any kind of purpose. This is to keep both you and our monetary system trustworthy and safe.
After a blockade or red flag 🚩 the compliance department will take a look at the case, and investigate further when required. Also by law, a financial institution isn't (always) allowed to discuss what exactly they are investigating unless they are asking for your help to continue the investigation.
In this case it's possible the request was the trigger but as mentioned above this can happen with any type of transaction and is a fairly regular process for compliant banks.
Hopefully everything will be resolved quickly.
