DismasWaTabu (@DismasWaTabu) reportedPayPal has a wonderful system. They call it anti-money laundering. What it really is, is a way to freeze African accounts whenever they feel like it. Here is how it works. You are trying to do business in Kenya. You need to get paid online. You set up PayPal. Everything is fine for a while. Then one day, PayPal decides you need to provide documents. Not just any documents. Impossible documents. Documents that do not exist. Documents that no African bank has ever heard of. You send what you have. It is not enough. They freeze your account. Your money is stuck. You cannot access it. PayPal says it is for security. It is to stop money laundering. It is to protect everyone. Funny thing though. This happens mostly to Africans. Not to Americans. Not to Europeans. To Africans. PayPal will tell you they treat everyone the same. But everyone knows that is a lie. They have a special playbook for Africa. Step one: freeze the account. Step two: ask for documents. Step three: freeze it again because the documents are not the right format. Step four: keep the money. They know we have no consumer protection laws. They know we cannot sue them effectively. They know we need the money more than they need us. So they freeze. They block. They take their time. And we suffer. This is not anti-money laundering. This is business as usual for PayPal in Africa. This is called colonialism with a login page. Dismas wa Tabu. Dreaming in installments. Billed in full.

Gamer_Dad_'86 (@GAMR_86) reported@AlityRay I did as a down payment because I wasnt expecting a massive amount after the fact. But once I sent 10 via PayPal then all of a sudden the actual price came out. It was stupid but I wanted to see if I was right about the tactic being used and I was.
