OOW script

I am going to ask you a series of multiple choice questions. The questions are based on public records and an independent vendor. The quiz is timed. So, if you do not understand a question please let me know and I will repeat it as quickly and clearly as possible. If you pass the quiz, we will be able to process your request. However, if you fail the quiz, it times out, or I'm unable to generate the quiz, we will require other means of verification before we can transact business. Do you agree with that and would you like me to proceed with the quiz?
