Comment on Ask HN: Help I need advice on fraud

Comments

Run from this. You've been lucky.

1) You are almost certainly operating a money transmitting service (like Western Union). If you are an intermediary between people giving each other money, there are piles of regulations and compliances you must deal with just to stay out of jail!

2) Anything dealing with money and internet is HARD. This is like complaining that you tried to be a veterinarian on the side and some animals died. There is a minimum amount of knowledge you need just to start. You presently don't know what you don't know in this space. Its dangerous.

Sorry for the downer, but pick a different side project.
