I tried ordering proxies from Cheap Private Proxies and got a "MaxMind" security error which prevented me from making the purchase. I have never heard of MaxMind before and never have problems making purchases from other businesses. I did some searches on the net and found lots of complaints about "MaxMind".
When I wrote to Cheap Private Proxies about the error, they wanted me to send them my ID which is my drivers license. I'm not buying a house or a car... just 10 proxies for 7 bucks. To sign up to get proxies, they demanded that I create an account with my full address and phone number. I don't like giving out personal information to people & businesses I never heard, especially my drivers license, so I'm drawing the line on that request and am not sending it to them. I'm finished with Cheap Private Proxies and wish I had never heard of them.
I've had my paypal account since 2002, it's a merchant account and it's verified so that should be good enough to make a $7 purchase. It's been good enough for all of the business I've bought from on the net during the past 13 years.
I asked Cheap Private Proxies to delete my account & personal information since I have no intentions of doing business with them now... so we'll see if they honor my request. If not, I will be doing an update
UPDATE: I found another source to get 10 proxies for the same price and they only asked for a email address, password and paypal. I ordered from them and got my proxies in a few minutes with no problems.
