Well, the first thing which actually you should notice that FunPay is actually a provider of payments in-between couterparties, they doesn't execute and provide the service itself, but takes a responcibility & risk for it — so this is how they make a profit. It's a standart middle-man line of business, there nothing that you could worry about 99% time. Untill... They face somekind negative-customer-scenario, like every business nowdays, but the numbers are something like 95%5 positive-to-negative customer ratio, which you could also re-check on TrustPilot or so. Of course, those cases also have an impact on fraud-control numbers, but it only proves that it deserves a more close look to this case. The second this is obvious for everyone, who was any kind of stakeholder or has some expirience in decision-making, when somebody making 1000+ plus transactions in-a-small-moment-of-time or so, that is definetly a sophisticated & well-prepated attack. As a result, seems the FunPay's commerial success has a very 'jelaus' price to pay. Very few people love winners. Maybe a resourceful client, or business-partner, or competitors, you'd never knew it, until it's too-late. But does it Mikhail's fault that his team detect fraud transactions after PayPal team do? Since FP team doesn't know which one PP account are compromised by hackers, and PP - does. I guess PP support team should take a more close look to this case, since if they will review this case as a 'negative', they will send a negative signal not just for FP but for the whole industry as well.
