I just received this strange e-mail from NAP
We are writing to advise that NET-A-PORTER has recently registered for
VAT in ............. and is now required to charge our .............. customers VAT at 20% for any future orders and to submit monthly VAT returns to the
.............. government.
In order to adhere to these requirements, we need your personal identification
number . This is a legal requirement in ............. and is applicable for ........ residents only.
If you could please email this information by Thursday 4th December, we would
greatly appreciate it. If you have questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Has anybody from EU received such a request? Do they have a registration as personal data administrator and comply with protection data law ?
