The bulk of paxful trades are gift cards by nigerians and indians. Has paxful staff never questioned how nigerians manage to get usa giftcards considering they do not sell giftcards of such in nigeria. Paxful boasts high volume trades of giftcards bought in the usa from nigeria users yet they do not wander how the nigerians get their cards?
These nigerians scam USA residents through various methods such as online dating scams. They target vulnerable people and Paxful help them to launder thier money. What kind of business model is this? After trading on paxful for less than a month I have realised this. The owners have not realised this in the 5 years they have been open?
I have collected proof and I will be reporting this to news outlets in the near future. From nigerians uploading images of the chats they have with these vulnerable people accidently to them putting their paxful display picture as the person they have scammed.
Paxful is willingfully doing so. They know the source of the giftcards are from scams. Many articles written by Paxful acknowledge the nigerians and indians get their gift cards from "shady sources" but still allow them to be traded on the platfrom. Paxful claims to not allow gift card brokering (the selling of giftcards when you are not the original purchaser). However in their articles they acknowledge usa giftcards cannot be bought in nigeria, most of their trades are from nigerians trading usa giftcards.
Paxful ask for something simple in the event of a disagreement , for a picture of the card with trade chat in the background. Not one of the trades I was involved in a disagreement in was nigerian able to provide the information requested. This is because they cant! They cant ask their victims to do this for them as this would make their victims aware of the scams. Surely if it is a legit money transfer from a USA citizen to a Nigerian the Nigerian could ask their USA counterpart to log into their Paxful and provide the requested information.
I am calling for the investigation of Paxful staff and its CEO Ray Yussef. Many of your staff will be arrested when you are caught. Paxful staff you should consider leaving your job. Going to prison for a company that is making you participate in illegal money laundering will not be worth the prison sentence. I will be forwarding this story to many news outlets. I have collected evidence from trades I have done. Even if I myself am incriminated I will be happy that I have managed to hinder these scammers from bringing misery to hard working people's lives.
I POSTED THIS ORIGINALLY ON THE PAXFUL REDDIT PAGE. I WANT ANSWERS AS TO WHY THEY ALLOW THIS HOWEVER THEY TAKE DOWN ANYTHING THAT DOES NOT SUIT THEIR AGENDAS.
Edit:
This link provides an insight into just how much money laundering is happening on this platform.
