Money movement services that result in payments to overseas nationals are generally pretty regulated.
VISA / MasterCard etc all likely have terms prohibiting exactly this type of situation for fraud and other reasons.
The govt may have rules in place here as well.
So yes, this may be working as intended. There are services dedicated to this type of situation (world remit etc). They can then issue proper tax forms (W-8 Ben etc requests). Often these shell LLC's don't do proper tax withholding etc for overseas folks because they are controlled by the same people.
