Do not understand the meaning of the Money Laundering Act

A question about the Money Laundering Act that I don't quite understand:

First of all: it is always rumored that the limit for withdrawals without Verification is around 2,300€ +-.
I do not want to commit me there, it is actually also no matter, since the casino also with lower Auzahlungen
Verifications can require.

So, I Deposit 50€, and have to verify myself. So far so good. That the casino controls due to the AGB`s, who I am, is yes
ok. But the reason is 90% that they are obliged to do so because of the money laundering law, and they can do nothing about it.

So I pay 50€ and win 5000€. That's why I still only paid 50€. Ergo, should actually
the casino must prove, where it takes the 4450€ win, which it pays out to me, or do I see this wrong?
Why am I actually controlled for the 50€ deposit and the casino is not? But these bring the almost
100 times the sum of my deposit to be able to pay me.

My deposit is and remains yes 50€. That makes zero sense!

I could understand it if someone deposited 5000€ in one go!

In addition, the experience, I think sunmaker was where I had a run.
Ca 50€ deposited, and am at the 3000€ abruptly been blocked. Reason was verification due to money laundering law.
Ääääh, despite 3000€ I have only 50€ used, so where is the sense?
Except that of course my winning streak was over

Understand what you mean.
However, the 2300 does not only refer to a single withdrawal, but could also be reached after several deposits and withdrawals.
Why the Verification is not oriented to the Deposit amounts, which would actually be much more ausssgekraftiger, I do not understand now that I think about it.

Where the casino has the money to pay out, it will probably have to prove within the framework of tax laws, accounting, etc..

Very interesting topic! There is something to it ...awesome that you did not even came on it !!!!

Was with me also times so ...25 € deposited that first time and then 3k rausgeholt ...and then also came the whole Verifizierungskacka ...

Although they actually gave me more than I gave them

But do not understand why you have been blocked at 3000 ?
Normally you play but further as long as you want and only at the payout you have to verify such a win ???

Why do you get banned from sunmaker?

But rather because they have noticed that you have a run or?

Awesome

Well, I think they got spooked by my show. In any case, I was kicked out of my nice session,
got logged out, and couldn't access my account
And the inquiry revealed that they are obliged to control from a certain amount

And that's complete bullshit, especially with the blocking. I have not deposited 3000€.

@Julian
Yes if I were Pablo, I would open an OC, and would control the others^^

In Germany you have to declare amounts from 10.000€ cash or was it the total value over 10.000€ at the customs on arrival at the airport
declare. Banks are obliged to report or check amounts from 10,000€.

Since I am with my measly deposits just really far away^^

The whole issue with money laundering is not about a win that you have made, but in general the issue of cashing in and cashing out.
I could simply Deposit 1000 and then pay out the 1000 again. That's why you are not allowed to buy more than 100€ Paysafe per day at most stores (because Paysafe is anonymous).

As a practical example: I run a drug business and earn my money with it. This money I can't just bring to bank, because someday someone will ask me where the money comes from^^. Storing the money at home is very risky. So what do I do. I deposit the money in a casino (best under a false name what ever because I do not have to identify 11), play vllt even a bit and then let me pay out again.
Already the money is quite legal on my account and no one asks many questions, because the money then comes from a legal source, namely the casino^^.

The point of money laundering is not to make a win, but to "launder" it.
Ergo, I pay in my illegal money somewhere, ideally anonymously, and then have it legally paid out again. Thus, the dirty money from illegal businesses, etc. just legal clean gel from a casino for example. ^^
For this reason, your identity bank accounts etc must be verified so that you are tangible.
Therefore, many mafia structures also operate a legal business, without fraud and co, simply because they can wash with the legal business funds from drug traff**king and prostitution, etc. pure.

Where the casino has and gets its money, it must prove permanently through its accounting.

That is the rough explanation, I hope I could help further

Yes, of course, I understand the supposed reason behind it.

But then I would have to consequently verify myself with every order on the Internet at Amazon, Otto or elsewhere
i would have to verify myself completely. But this is never necessary. Even when ordering beyond the 1000€ not.

This would be much more lucrative for money laundering and, above all, faster.

And as I said, I'm talking about small amounts.

Or discover a new casino, Deposit 20 euros, and win big.

With 20 euros I hardly wash money, then I would need forever
And even a check I always withstand with 20€. You can
You can always "explain".

So that sunmaker has blocked your account during a run, I find strange. Sunmaker is actually not so on it and if you google the Internet, then you will not find a single complaint of denied payouts or the like. Maybe once when there is a technical error (which can always happen) that then the payout is delayed but more was never there.

Sunmaker has been on GambleJoe since day one and I have had players write to me with small deposits of between $10,000 and the highest win I have personally heard of was $35,000. The players always wrote to me after the win because they were afraid that they would not get the money but there were never any problems even with these high wins. I have never heard of such a procedure (blocking if there is more than 3.000€ on the player account). 3.000€ is also not that much money and for Sunmaker this is nothing to get nervous about anyway. Maybe once at 30,000€ gecheckd but before that I can not imagine that at Sunmaker - unless they are really legally obliged to do so.

Did you maybe cash out 3,000€, cancel the money and then continue playing? Or did you win €3,500 and give €3,000 to be cashed out? In those cases, I think it would at least kind of make sense.

Otherwise, all companies that work with money (not only take money in exchange for a service, but also pay it out like banks, brokers, etc.) have to abide by money laundering laws in Europe. Even in the casino, since 1 or 2 years ago, you have to show your ID again if you win over 2,000€ and want to withdraw the money at the counter against cash. But the casino doesn't ask about deposits either.

What this ultimately brings everything I honestly do not know. In my opinion, Online Casinos are not good for money laundering anyway (let me gladly teach me better in this point). You can theoretically trace everything, because nothing goes through cash, except maybe in a very small way through Paysafecards. But money laundering usually involves larger amounts.

Any restaurant or kebab shop is better suited for money laundering because it involves a lot of cash transactions. Restaurants and kebab stands are also often money laundering sites ...

No with Amazon etc you can not compare, there you do not launder money, but buy goods, as if you stand at the checkout at Aldi^^.
You do not exchange when shopping online money go money, which would be highly illegal due to money laundering laws^^. (Apart from maybe a par collector coins or something)
The Deposit is never the problem ^^, but it becomes a problem when you want to have the money back, because only then it is washed ^^.
Online casinos have in the times of cryptocurrencies and Torbrowser etc already quite a large potential for money laundering, that the only thing that makes it unattractive, is just the Verification and exactly why it is so important ^^.

@ Daniel

So this is not a current action of sunmaker, that should be a few years ago.
I am at that time from a running and really extremely well running session rausgeflogen,
and could not log in again. The inquiry resulted in that I have to verify myself with the sum first
verify, they would have their rules there
At the time it was going so well that I have not yet given anything to pay out.
No matter what slot, only mega wins

I then had to verify, then my account was released again.

The other day I hit the second highest Jackpot at Bank Buster in the casino, I didn't have to show anything
i had nothing to show. That was almost 4.200€. It was a few months ago.
In the same casino I have often won over 2000€, but never had to verify.
The only thing that has been changed are the tables where the payout takes place, and there is a camera above it.
The tax office has noticed that they get tips when paying out, and that has to be
taxed......

Yes, it really doesn't make sense. Of course, you don't know if the casinos will interpret the law in their favor
interpret the law in their favor. Will have to read through the European money laundering law. Can
hardly imagine that I have to be checked for small deposits and high wins.
Would really make no sense. Except the casino would be checked.

Since ne kebab shop is really better suited
Apart from that, even if I verify myself, they still don't know where I got the money from.
Nobody asks me for a pay slip or anything like that.
Of course, it could be checked afterwards, if they have to give this information to the authorities
to the authorities. But for that you would have to know the law

With brokers and such people it makes sense. They trade with thousands of euros.
There are times fast 20.000€ untergejubelt and washed
But with us most mini-gamers with mostly deposits of 10-100€?
As you also write, it makes no sense.

@Tim

Thought of course with my criminal energy to return the goods or resale
Nevertheless, it would make more sense to control the casinos more strictly. There it became
known that these launder money through their casinos. Therefore I would be interested whether
this is an advanced reason by casinos to check the identity. It is plausible to me at least
with small deposits simply not
Since I would need forever, for example, 5000 € to wash
Do not think that casinos would be a good alternative.
