I am afraid the way you did things would raise alarm bells, that is the typical behaviour associated with a hi-jacked account.

The scammer targets an account that hasn't been used to sell for a long time, they change region etc then start to list items at odds with past selling history.

I have no idea why you did not just provide the proof of identity they asked for as that would probably have sorted things out reasonably quickly, you querying anything about that probably had them just marking the account as not worth the risk.
