Had a similar experience with ANZ last week, buying Woolworths Gift Cards on Qantas Marketplace.
The unblocking process with ANZ was like an interrogation, and I had to explain in detail why I was purchasing gift cards and was I possibly be scammed. 🙄

As someone quite ancient, I don't think I have a problem with an interrogation if it saves me being scammed.
