What you think about buying Monero for someone asking to pay in Kes? They are from Kenya, more likely than not it’s from scammers

    Problem is not that, but they got the Monero via scamming someone in Europe/US and trying cash them out now, most likely than no security researchers tracking their names/accounts

      The entire philosophical point of monero is its fungible. So you don’t know where that monero came from. They could be an online graphics designer getting paid in crypto. There are many options. If you’re a vendor on local monero and you have KYC policies based on the origin of the money you could always ask for proof of origin for the funds. But that’s going to be more administration on your end
