Illicit resource

A merchant cannot resolve the invoice that is assigned with the status_context of illicit_resource themselves.

Instead, Cryptopay Transaction Monitoring team will review this transaction and contact the merchant to make a decision on whether Cryptopay will be able to process this payment and add the funds to the merchant account balance or we will have to send the funds back to a sender.

We highly recommend making your Fraud Prevention and Transaction Monitoring teams aware of all such payments so that they contact us at [email protected].

Refer to the Risks section to get more details on what High-Risk transactions are and why we take it very seriously.
