I am living in country where already many sites are restricted and not allowing members to have accounts but if somehow he is able to have account surely I am not going to encourage him about this because this is surely going to be problem for him in the future.
Now if he had big amounted which needed to be withdrawn, and he needs my details for KYC maybe I can help him because money matters now specially in conditions where we are living right now but still I am strongly feeling its not good time for him to go ahead with this hobby because things could be worst for him if he keeps going.
New generation is going fast which is increasing problems but still they always needed gaudiness and friendship for having thing normal and better for their future.
