[RESOLVED] Paxful.com - Straight up fraud. How Paxful.com took our 100,000 USD deposit and froze our account a day later

GOOD NEWS!

Paxful went ahead and reached out to us to inform us why our account was frozen (email copied and pasted below) and also unfroze the funds. The account has now been unfrozen and the funds have been fully withdrawn to a secure place.

Hi David,
We apologize for the inconvenience but will be able to go through what happened.
We froze your account when our systems detected that you attempted to send approximately $250 to a bitcoin address that we believe is owned by an exchanged located in Iran.
We’re a US regulated company and follows all US rules and regulations which is why we blocked this transaction. Furthermore, the account was temporarily frozen so we could assess the risk to ensure that there are no money laundering/terror financing concerns in regards to your account.
We’re going to unfreeze your account and let you to continue to use Paxful as this appears to be a simple mistake, but please be careful to where you’re sending transactions too. Lastly, if you do continue to send transactions to this address, we will have to conduct additional reviews on your account activity and will possibly exit the relationship. We apologize for this inconvenience but these are some of our measures in place to ensure that we are compliant with laws and regulations. Please reach out if you have any further questions!
Paxful Team”

I’m pretty sure it is. multiple sites have it, i just searched one of the founders and all it had was news about them getting arrested

Oh my lord, it’s actually true. The CEO of Paxful was caught in an armed robbery. At his house, they found guns and a CONTAINER of cocaine.

Why do people like him exist. Went over his feed, just an oddball who can’t get enough of Africa, even though he went after the Nigerian wallets hard. Also he talks about empowerment and all the high and mighty stuff while having an armed robbery behind his belt.
