coinbase blacklisetd my account after gambling withdrawals

[BTCat]

warning to anyone using coinbase with gambling sites. made about 15 withdrawals from stake to coinbase over past 3 months (total about $6k). today got email saying account under review and all functions locked. support says about suspicious activity but wont give details. pretty sure its because of gambling transactions

never withdraw directly from gambling sites to kyc exchanges. classic mistake. use intermediate wallet at minimum

yeah figured that out way too late. what's the proper route?

Even that can be risky. I guess better use route: gambling -> personal wallet - mixer -> different wallet -> exchange. Lots of steps but safer

happened to me with kraken last year. account eventually unfrozen after 2 months but they made me promise not to deposit from gambling sites again lol

any ideas how to get account unlocked faster? have about 1.2 eth stuck there which is stressful

might be too late but try telling them you were getting paid as affiliate. gambling itself not illegal but exchanges hate the association
