is kyc-drtax-verification@amazon.co.uk a scam?
In other posts, everyone seems to be treating this as bona fide, but is it?
Amazon say we will not be asked for personal data by email. This is a link to a draft Google email. Normally we have to upload it on a web page.
There is nothing showing on my Seller Central pages. My account is 'healthy'.
I have only recently done two types of verification (personal and business).
I then received another email asking for further information. This came from the kyc-drtax-verification@amazon.co.uk email address, not the amazon.com address. It also had slightly 'off centre' formatting, which looked a little odd.
I have forwarded it to 'stop spoofing' but I am a bit worried I have sent my driving licence details to a scammer.
However, the links I followed led to my own Seller Central pages, and everyone ion other threads here seem to be treating it as genuine. But is it?

Hi BuyTheBooks,
Have you looked at your Performance Notifications?

We've received the same thing today. It appears to have greyed out our disbursement and a copy of the email is showing in performance notifications. It seems to be the KYC that does the rounds but the wording this time around is so stressful. We've been UK based since established so I don't know where they're getting we're abroad from. I will do a scout before I send any documents though just to make sure it is legit
