    OFAC stole a wire transfer to my landlord. I assume it’s because he has a Middle Eastern-sounding name.

    They provided me a case number and I mailed in the forms I found online to dispute the seizure. They sent me a letter saying that they had no record of that case. I realized the futility of fighting the government over a couple of grand and switched to depositing money orders into his account and let it go. Created a lot of extra effort (not that it was difficult, just tedious) on my end.

    OFAC is a criminal organization.
