I got an email with the following title...
We noticed an issue with your account
It said in part...
On February 02, 2020, you sent a payment (****6733) for the
amount of $25 for, "Ahmad and Wes." Please provide the following
information:
• The date of birth for Ahmad.
It seems they think I am involved in human trafficking as when I went to my account I found the following notice there...

I sent the following response...
Ahmad is Ahmad Jamal. According to Wikipedia, Ahmad Jamal (born Frederick Russell Jones, July 2, 1930) is an American jazz pianist, composer, bandleader, and educator. For five decades, he has been one of the most successful small-group leaders in jazz. This would make him 89 years old if my math is correct. BTW, "Wes" is Wes Montgomery. Please let me know if you also require his Wikipedia information.
Seems kind of Orwellian, doesn't it?
