This does not look good:
Payza and Two Canadian Brothers Accused of Operating an Unlicensed Money Service Business and Money Laundering.
Two Canadian brothers, Firoz Patel, 43 and Ferhan Patel, 37, have been indicted by a federal grand jury in the District of Columbia on charges alleging they operated an Internet-based unlicensed money service business that processed more than $250 million in transactions.
According to the indictment, Payza’s customers included Ponzi schemes, pyramid schemes and a child pornography site. The Patels opened bank accounts in the United States and laundered their illegal proceeds through those accounts.
The defendant is accused of operating a money transmitting business that operated without the necessary state licenses and knowingly transmitting funds that were derived from illegal activity from in or about March 2012 until the present.
