Should I Be Worried About Google?

Wasn't sure which forum to put this in but here goes.
I updated my CC details in Google Wallet as my old card had expired however now the account has been suspended, something about not being able to verify my original supplied details?
However to unlock the account they want me to upload images of either my passport/drivers licence/government ID card and a utility bill.
I'm rather reluctant to do this as I don't know how trustworthy/security concious Google and their employees are and feel it is overkill to be able to buy a few apps from the play store.
I've checked it's not a phishing attack and it seems genuine, what do people think?
