I live in Canada, if I place an order at GetBMWParts.com, they won't ship me anything unless I provide photo ID with my credit card purchase (at least on the 1st order I ever placed with them). When I questioned why, it has something to do with the merchant processing.
Not saying you should order from them, but I would also not suggest they are defrauding you, just being careful.

If that is the case which, I do not know as I haven't ordered ever from Bimmian. They could do right by at least explaining the reasoning for why. Like I'm always blown at how shitty some companies communications are. Majority of the time customers get frustrated because they are not fully aware of the circumstances or situation and companies have the shittiest way at diffusing it or bringing clarity!
