Dispute the transaction....
And in the future, don't use ur credit cards for purchase online
There's a lot of bad people out there, and nope, do not give a photo nor signature that's a sign of FRAUDULENT ACYIVITY.. Use a regular bank card, banks are more secure, people use GPAY Amazon pay, I prefer PAYPAL...
Be careful and dispute the transaction...

I have done business with them in the past and never was asked for any of those things. Ashley is the owner of Wake and Vape. When did you put the order in and how long ago did you request a refund? Not sure how much I can help but will see what i can do

Those are some of the state laws in certain states when it comes to selling online. But not sure if California is one of them or is just gearing up for this law.
I am sure she will refund you, and you can always dispute the CC charge anyway.
Or, they detected the possibility of being ripped of by you, and requested information to verify what you submitted was legitimate.
Many places that sell firearms ammo on-line require a FAX or emailed image of your state driver's license before they'll sell to you. This is so they can ensure they're selling to who they're told they are. No I.D.: No sale.
Yes: For vape stuff that seems unusual. Perhaps they're just covering themselves? Perhaps they believe they have cause to suspect something's awry with your order?
They haven't "ripped you off." Not yet. If you get neither product nor refund: Then you'll have been ripped off.
I just bought 500 rds of .45 and 500 rds of 9mm. I emailed them a scan of my drivers license. I did not run to a board and cry about it.
Your post has a bad smell to it.

Yep smells like someone got all butthurt... sandy vag... etc. etc.
He should blame commiefornia instead of slandering a vendor.
then can we close this shit out instead of having it weight on us like dog turd to our shoe?Psst, he never came back, drive by folks
Problem is really the payment industry. more so then states themselves. Visa, MC, Amex, Disc are waging a war against the vape industry due to massive amounts of charge backs daily from folks looking for a free vape ride. In turn the card companies have put the squeeze on processors such as paypal, google wallet, amazon, sage and so on.. Because of this, us vape shop owners are forced into something called the high-risk sector. we end up getting killed in fees because no normal processor will even entertain the idea of doing business with us. I suspect what W&V is doing is off-setting some fees by having you sign for it. much harder to dispute a transaction with signature, so in turn it puts her/them in a lower risk category. This my friends is the price you pay when so many people abuse the system. In a world where everyone wants the lowest price, vendors need to be creative in ways to save a penny to pass it along.

Recently I purchased the Goblin Mini V2 from Vaporider out of Texas. In the process they asked me for a signed confirmation stating that I am who I said I am and my age is correct. All this is done on-line. I see no problem with certifying my identity and age, these vendors have to protect themselves from selling to minors- after all, how difficult is it to get a gift card or a prepaid credit card? This guy posted once and disappeared!
I've had a sorta negative experience with Wake and Vape but nothing too major. I ordered some coils, they showed up with 4 out of 5 in one of the boxes with busted and pulled out bottom pins. I emailed Ashely and she responded right away and was happy to send me a new box of coils. Unfortunately she sent me the wrong resistance. So, I emailed her back and let her know but never heard back. To be honest, I was happy she even replaced the box as they must receive their coil orders by the fuck ton and there is no reasonable way for them to inspect each box. They do offer great prices and have a strong rep online so for a good enough deal I would consider ordering from them again. As to the OP's post, stinks to high heaven..

That's one helluva buffalo you got there steve! 
I have only heard good things about w&v. Never ordered from there though. However, the company i work for uses a service called sygnifyd which is an online order "checker" for lack of better wording. It rates customers based on literally everything. Number of disputes on a cc acct, IP addresses from where orders normally originate from, and even can find links to customer's social media to name a few. Depending on the customer's "score", we might contact them and ask for a copy of their id to confirm billing addresses etc. However, we would definitely contact them before billing them, unless you are simply seeing an authorization on your account.
