A week or so ago, I booked a seat with WinAir to fly from St. Maaten to Saba for a dive trip in May. I booked via their website with my credit card. I received a confirmation email from WinAir and the charge for the airfare was deducted from my credit card account. Everything seemed fine.
Then, earlier this week, I received another email from WinAir requesting I email or fax a picture of my passport page and a picture of my credit card, front and back, or they will cancel my reservation, refund my money, and I will have to rebook through a travel agent. :11: I called the WinAir contact number for St. Maaten to inquire about this and was told that this is a new policy they have implemented due to the increase in credit card fraud.
I have a problem with sending my personal info and credit card info via email or fax to WinAir or anyone else. Has anyone out there encountered a similar request for personal information via email or fax? Any suggestions on how I should handle this?
Thanks in advance for any advice regarding this matter.
