Sounds like a very successful money laundering operation.
- elevenoh 5y agoWhy tho? It ain't exactly a dry cleaners
- 55555 5y agoIt isn't. This is normal in mobile games.
- BigJono 5y agoHow would that even work? I doubt anyone is buying accounts for even a fraction of the amount spent on microtransactions.
- NGRhodes 5y agoMoney laundering is a challenge even in the more tightly regulated industry I worked in. Conversely at one of my previous employers some of our big spenders were publicly known high end rich.
- flutas 5y agoAt one of my former jobs, we had a tipping system where we took 15% off the top. We stored every transaction and user in a graphDB. It was fun seeing normal flows, until you see the money laundering flows show up. It was above my pay grade to deal with them, so I still don't know how that turned out.
