Information about refunding services going private and recent news - pxl_rip - 07-26-2024
Hi, I would like to know if you know why a lot of refunding services on telegram are going "private" and closing vouches channel.
Sometimes they refer to "recent news".
In addition I noticed that a private refunder I had on telegram disappeared, I cannot find his user anymore but it may be a coincidence tho.
Do you know more about the recent situation?

After the situation with ARG/REKK, a lot of groups have been shutting down or disappearing. Due to scams and the scale of damage these groups cause, we stopped allowing services in our market a long time ago.

He even sold his group to another person. Amazon started going after people in recent. Especially those who did refunds on their real accounts with real information and did carrier scans.

This whole issue with REKK is from last December. However, many account/groups went private the last days.
Still wondering what’s happening.
Have to say I see multiple accounts named Amazon Enforcement joining those refund groups.

It's all part of the same thing. These groups are targeting Amazon specifically and Amazon doesn't like it.
In the past week, Amazon's investigators made a big bust taking down some refunder with awful opsec.
