Case #282DataPasa, a VPS host, opened its personal test page itself, chose USDT on Ethereum, entered its own address and on 14 October received $20 — on our terms: receive $20, pay a $15 invoice. When it was time to pay, our payment flow turned out to be “very unsafe” and in need of a rework. A rework into what — something DataPasa would like? Funny. So we asked them simply to return the $20, and suddenly an “AML-policy” appeared. Where was it when they accepted our money on our terms, without a single question? Amusing. We agreed to that condition too, the same day. Since then neither the address that received our $20 nor the wallet it was forwarded to (0x8199…C158) has sent a single USDT, and the invoice is unpaid.
Paying was “unsafe — please rework your flow”. Returning the $20 was “according our AML-policy”. Taking the $20 on our terms was safe and needed no AML at all.
Your payment processing flow is very unsafe (looks like totally vibecode). Can you rework your payment flow?
We're can return your $20 to wallet: 0x2cff890f0378a11913b6129b2e97417a2c302680 According our AML-policy.
