Bank withholding funds?

[cryptolord2077]

Always different. I use cards from different countries, and most often this happens only when you try to transfer a large amount, or when you transfer money in an unusual way,
for example, from one system to another, but you have not done this before. As far as the amount of money is concerned, everything will vary from country to country.

One of the negative part when you do rely out on banking system since its centralized then you do need to follow the terms if not then expect for follow up requirements.
Its true that this will be depending on countries laws because it do differs from places to place.Some might be that serious on money laundering and some wouldnt really
just put up much attention to that even their depositors do make out big transactions which is already out of their scope but still having no issues and still continue
to make use of their service.I havent experienced it though because i dont have that much money to begin with.

I come from a country in Asia, and for my country if I make a deposit under $ 10k there is no question about the source of the money. But if we want
to make a withdrawal above $ 1000, the bank will ask for our identity card. To be honest, I have never had the money in my account withheld
by a bank, until now I have made thousands of dollars in transactions that have always been smooth. Maybe because I make deposits and withdrawals
are always little by little and not done at once. That could be why I always make transactions at the bank smoothly.

There will be a question raised in their mind if you go to bank and deposit physical money into your bank account but if it happens via bank transfer then most likely there will be no questions asked because banks itself knows where that money comes from.And the same goes with the sending and withdrawal of money from your account.

Bitcoin is the online transaction and it's digital currency exchange system ,The Reserve Bank of India had asked them to stop providing services to firms and individuals who deal in bitcoins and other such virtual money. And exchanges got no relief from the Supreme Court.

From which amount did your bank retained your money and asked you to supply additional documents etc? 10K+? 100K+? they never retained your amount? Planning to book partial profits and want to know others experience.

Even before opening a bank account, usually, you have to provide all your details so it doesn't make sense how one can avoid KYC if using real banks. Are you talking about VBA? (Virtual Bank Account)

Yes if you are transacting huge amounts or the account isn't active but suddenly a lot of funds are being poured into it, then there might be additional scrutiny but that won't happen in VBA if you are using a good one.

I won't suggest doing any illegal activities through your own bank accounts if even do them at all via any source because I have seen some adverse things happening to users in past. There used to be a LBC user whom I knew was a legit seller, legit in the sense that he was trusted, but he was somehow involved in money laundering and faced more issues within the case than most of us would face in our entire life. So make sure what you are doing is legal since it involves your bank accounts.

You have not updated bro, India's SC overruled the restriction imposed by Reserve Bank of India so now people can trade and exchanges are currently working but in the future India may pass a law which can completely ban the cryptos or simply regulate the cryptos and impose high taxes but there is no sign of doing this yet.

By unusual do you mean transacting too many times within a single day? Like if one wants to transfer 10k, they sometimes break the bigger amount into smaller ones and send 1k but 10 times to stay under the radar. That kind of activities are easily detected, you are right.

for example, from one system to another, but you have not done this before. As far as the amount of money is concerned, everything will vary from country to country.

Not sure about the system but a good VPN can be used which provides a static and dedicated IP so you don't have to worry much. And someone dealing in such high amounts shouldn't be too concerned about a $50-100 VPN. Maybe to solve the new system problem you can use a virtual machine like AWS and something like that and use the same machine every time.

I am not sure if these things can bypass security checks but for sure they reduce the detection by some margin.

I’m also afraid doing big transactions with the banks, especially that my salary is not that convincing, and this is why I do some P2P transactions with my friends and ask them to pay in cash. Banks are very strict especially if you’re going to withdraw your money but if you’re just going to deposit, there’ll be no questions being asked.

Please mention the country you reside if possible (if not, at least the continent). Thanks!

I live in a EU country and I've never had any problems with my bank account.
I guess that I'm "flying under the radars",because I don't transact large sums of money.
AFAIK,in my country all bank transfers above 2500 EUR are reported by the bank to the tax agency.
If you want to deal with banks and you have large amounts of money to send and receive,there's no other way than playing by the rules of the bank and submitting all the necessary documentation.

You’re dealing with the banks and you have no choice but to comply with their requirements since their are being monitored by the AMLA, and its too hassle for you if they freezes your account for being a suspicious. I also don’t transact big money with the banks and that’s why I never experienced to be asked by many supporting documents, this will only applies to those who have millions of money.

I hail from the Asia-Pacific region, though sometimes I stay in the US on very rare occasions. I can say that US or NA banks in general are quite lax when it comes to transfers from exchanges and withdrawals too. Perhaps it is so because of the prevalence of cryptocurrency dealings and talks about bitcoin/crypto on the region. Whereas if I'm in the APAC region, banks would always ask you to send proof of funds when transfers from an exchange exceed $1000, which is quite annoying though it is what it is.

I have been summoned in different banks and exchanges asking the same thing just because I deposited/withdrawn over $1000 in a day. This is why sometimes I do not deposit my funds but rather keep it in cold cash or on a debit card not controlled by any of the banks that I use just to avoid the hassle of going to the banks just to submit a piece of paper and answer some of their questions that I've already heard more than 10 times.

Almost every rich person holding and making transactions from their bank accounts whether they are buying and selling their assets which means their account also got freezed? When the user can provide the source of the cash then there is nothing wrong with doing transactions in millions but people choose to stay away from banks to avoid tax paying in my opinion.
