Hey Snivilian, I had the same issue as you a while ago when ordering from thinkgeek check out this thread.

Just make sure that it is a legitamate email address that your sending it too and that all other details other than those requested are blanked out.

Yeah! email address looks legit and all the details in the mail are correct so i reckon my drivers license and credit card should cover it.

Thanks for the reply
