How to safely accept payments from international clients when high-risk accounts keep getting shut down

I’ve been dealing with a nightmare lately: multiple accounts got banned in quick succession, and I’ve lost nearly $20k in funds and held balances. I’m sure many of you in high-risk niches know how this goes.

What’s been the most reliable way you’ve found to accept payments from customers worldwide without getting your accounts frozen or terminated? I’m looking for solutions that are proven to work long-term, not just workarounds that get shut down in a month.

I’m open to hearing about merchant accounts, crypto options, or even wire transfer workflows that have worked for you. Any advice would be a huge help.

Got scammed by too many buyers… now I’m launching my new supplement supply line. Can I make it?

I’ve been in this supply industry for years, you can even check my posts in the scammer exposure community. I’ve been ripped off countless times by professional scammers over the years.

I’ve suffered huge losses from deadbeat buyers, got backstabbed and stiffed on payments many times. Getting cheated repeatedly has only made me stick to honest business principles, treat every genuine client with sincerity, and never play any dirty tricks.

I always prioritize long-term cooperation over quick short-term profits, keep every promise, and guarantee stable top-tier product quality.

Now I’ve officially launched A natural active substance popular in fitness, fat loss and skincare wellness products. Do you guys think I can succeed in this industry?

I got scammed twice over three watches in Sweden, and I need to warn everyone here.

First, a Swedish buyer refused to pay for three watches after receiving them. I had to threaten to involve the police to get him to send the watches to another guy in Sweden I thought I could trust.

Big mistake. I’d dealt with this guy multiple times before, had long video calls with him. He said he was a student looking to get into this business, and I genuinely thought he was reliable. So I asked him to hold the watches and send them to my next buyer when ready.

Months later, I found a buyer for those watches. He ignored every request to ship them out. Now he’s just ghosting me completely — not replying to any messages at all.

Trusting people in this game can cost you everything. Don’t make the same mistake I did.

Full Timeline

  1. First order – building fake trust

He bought one watch first, complained a bit about strap/lume but kept saying he’d order more and pay via his sister’s PayPal. I trusted him.

  1. Big order: 3 watches (€1400)

He ordered 3 watches. We agreed:

• 50% payment when DHL picks up

• rest on delivery

He delayed payment, I still shipped in good faith.

Once he received the watches, he claimed “quality worse than first one” and refused to pay anything.

  1. The fake return excuse

He said he’d send the watches back to my friend in Sweden.

Gave a tracking number that never updated.

PostNord confirmed no package was ever sent.

He kept blaming system delays, Black Friday, slow updates.

  1. Shoe order chaos (2 pairs total)

• He ordered one pair of shoes.

• Factory made the wrong color, and since it’s size 46 it couldn’t be returned.

• I asked if he’d accept it; he said no.

• I had no use for it, so I sent it to him anyway.

Meaning I sent him two pairs of shoes total, not just one.

  1. Final outcome

After weeks of excuses, delays, and lying about returns:

He directly told me:

“I can’t pay you. Sorry”

Got all 3 watches + 2 pairs of shoes for free.

Refuses to return anything.

Refuses to pay anything.

Red flags

• Avoided agreed deposit from the start

• Constantly changed excuses

• Used “bro” vibe to lower guard

• Lied about shipping returns

• Took extra free shoes I sent out of goodwill

Lesson

Never ship anything without full upfront payment, even if they act friendly and promise future business.

If anyone runs into this buyer from Sweden, be extremely careful.

Can I post about an Italian scammer here? He’s not a Reddit user, but I have his phone number and all our chat logs. He scammed me out of a Cartier Santos from AF. I sent the watches to him before receiving payment, and as soon as he got the package, he blocked me completely.
