Kraken just closed my account and stole all my money

I made a small transaction to an individual in Cuba of $50 that is legally allowed called a "donative remittance".

The transaction was to allow a non-sanctioned private individual to buy food and other basic necessities in an area that is currently under extreme famine. There are hundreds of websites and physical stores across the US that allow these remittances to take place. For Whatever reason this transaction was flagged by OFAC and I have to submit documentation or whatever to release the transaction.

HOWEVER…. Kraken decided it is upon them to close my account and prevent ANY further release of funds. They are keeping the rest of my balance of $250 for their personal purposes (thank heavens I did not deposit more) This closure has nothing to do with OFAC and they wrongly directed me to them for the rest of my balance which they are keeping. Upon correction, they cease all further contact with me.

Please keep this in mind when determining which exchanges you want to do business with. Any excuse available and they will seize your entire crypto wallet and cut all communication with you.
