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.
 
Hello dear
I know you will be surprised reading from me today but consider this a divine intervention. My name is Donna Thayer, widow with stage 4 cancer.
I saw your email in my search for someone I can trust to assist and utilize the proceeds realized from my estates and investments for charity, basically helping the less privileged, widows and orphans because according to the doctors my days are numbered.
I desire to entrust this amount of money in your care and It is my last wish to use this money strictly for charity hence seek a sincere heart to actualize this as my health no longer permits me.
I am willing to give you a substantial part of the funds for your personal and family needs so reply to my email ([email protected]) and give me your word never to betray my trust. I have to rest now and will explain further when I hear from you.
God bless you,
Donna Thayer.
