He might have been trying to skim your card. I'd recommend using credit cards in the future because if he did get your pin and skim your card he could have withdrawn money from the bank

The sad reality is that they need to gentrify the city. They had their chance over the last few decades but instead chose to launder money and bankrupt most of the revenue generating casinos.

With casinos opening literally in NYC times square and throughout other states, I don't ever see a real reason to go to AC anymore. Sad because I actually really like it there and the whole concept but it just doesn't work

Trust me if you are soon-to-be retired you don't want a house near water. Too high of a risk of a flood zone. Do you really want to deal with demolding the house from water damage in retirement?

Because it is illegal in the state you are in and you are trying to avoid the regulations?

See above

It uhhh....sounds like you are trying to justify money laundering. Why are you using an offshore sportsbook that makes it overly complicated to deposit USD?

>For remittances - It's faster and cheaper than maybe a traditional service like Western Union, but definitely not some of the newer services, like the one I linked.

The alternative is just sending them fiat currency. If they are able to set up a crypto wallet they are able to set up an online bank account and accept payment. I'd argue this would be cheaper than paying gas fees and it only takes 1 day to transfer fiat currencies.
