This happened to me this week.

Am a sports gambler for many years, I know, it is a vice but my only one and I gamble with my hard-earned money.
This week I received a warning from a big exchange about the fact that I deposited fiat and immediately withdrew to a gambling site.
Well, I have been doing this as well for many years and so far there was no complain from their side.

I am fully KYC'ed with the exchange for some years, they know how much I earn per month and they can easily see that deposited amounts are within my means.


I went checking the terms and conditions and it is true that they do mention internet gambling as one of the prohibited activities.
Thing is, gambling is allowed in my country of residence.
Plus, the gambling sites I use are big known names, with valid licenses, not shady casinos.

Have to be careful now so it seems as for sure I will be monitored thoroughly now.

Did this happen to anyone else?

Would using an intermediary wallet to receive gambling funds be the solution?


In the first place dude, you already know that it's in their terms and conditions that it's forbidden but you still did it. why? because it's been several times that you've been able to transfer without any problems for a while that you've been doing it on their exchange so you still continued and ignored their terms and conditions? Maybe they just didn't notice right away or maybe you've reached their withdrawal limits accumulatively so that's why you noticed.

So the mistakes are yours not theirs, because they know that it's forbidden but you still did it, so you should expect that anytime they can really do
the thing you don't want but you still did it, you get it.
People do get confident just because they have tested out earlier and turned out that they havent been blocked nor being that banned because of such violation until they have decided to ignore those terms and conditions and believing that it doesnt work or not effective just because they've been able still to make use the platform until the time comes that they have been that suddenly blocked or locked out because of violation. Never ever make yourself that being confident on keeping on continuing on violating those terms and conditions on which we know that they might just that observing you into the things that you've been doing. They might be able to have some lapses on checking out on every user on which basing up into the user base of Binance or those exchangers out there, then you cant be able to monitor out everything. If it turned out that they have made out some warning then consider yourself lucky because they do made out some warning rather than on blocking you immediately.

The solution on here is that you should be that making up some withdrawal from gambling site to your personal wallet and then from there then you do transfer from wallet to exchange site on which this way then you would be able to save up yourself into that potential violation. For me Im pretty sure that i have done this also on making up some directly deposits from gambling site to and exchange and havent been warned out but since i have done it twice or thrice and also im not that always winning at gambling then this is where it do limits out my no. of transactions and this is the reason on why im not facing up on the same problem. Those terms and conditions being placed there because it does have its purpose and for you as a user of the platform on which the thing that you do need up to do is to make yourself that follow those rules for you not to be able to face up some potential problems.
