Migliaccio & Rathod LLP is investigating reports that Kraken has unfairly frozen customer accounts for weeks or months while demanding extensive financial documents.
Account Freezes and “Proof-of-Funds” Demands by Kraken
Since late 2024, many users in the U.S. have had their accounts suddenly restricted. Even after providing bank statements and pay stubs, some customers report their funds—ranging from $2,000 to $180,000—remain locked.
Why This Raises Legal Concerns
Consumers have a right to access their money in a reasonable time. Freezing funds without notice, or continuing to hold them after customers comply with verification, may amount to wrongful possession and breach of contract.
Has Kraken Blocked Access to Your Funds?
- Your account has been restricted due to “proof-of-source-of-funds” requests
