The process I normally follow is to accept internal email SAR's but to be
more suspicious of external ones. An email from [log in to unmask]
doesn't satisfy me that it is fred smith that is making the request so I
would look at the address they supplied against the address we have on their
record and if I'm still not sure I'll ask for proof of identity.

How do you normally check that a person is who they say they are? If
you can still carry out this process in an electronic way then yes it
should be regarded as valid

Subject: [data-protection] email requesting Subject Access Request
Is it lawful for someone to make a DP Subject Access request by email.
The
pdf is signed and has been scanned in. The cheque for the fee has
apparently
been sent separately. We have a form which we normally send out for
completion so are we within our rights to ask that this be completed
before
proceeding ?
I realise that an email request for FOI is valid and the email has been
sent
on to our FOI dept for them to deal with the parts that apply to them.
