Stronger Action on High-Risk Financial Meetings

[DANNY-DE-HEK]

Hi Zoom Team,

This is a suggestion, but also a genuine plea for accountability.

There are dozens of online schemes—flagged by government regulators around the world—that continue to use Zoom as their primary meeting platform. These aren’t just small-time operations; they are large-scale financial recruitment schemes with public warnings issued by authorities like New Zealand’s FMA, Australia’s ASIC, the State of California’s DFPI, and others.

If you go to YouTube and search for RainBNB, RideBNB, We Are All Satoshi, or Infinity Pi DAO, you’ll see they are still actively recruiting members via Zoom-hosted meetings.

I have personally submitted over 120 Zoom links related to these activities, many of them supported by official documents showing that these schemes have already been flagged. I’ve documented this abuse extensively and am willing to share it again if anyone at Zoom is willing to listen.

Instead, I received a ban for “violating community standards” simply for showing verified documents in a live stream that exposed the people behind one of these operations. Meanwhile, the actual meetings promoting these schemes continue without interruption.

I am offering my help to clean up the platform, but I feel ignored. It's incredibly frustrating to be silenced for disrupting fraud while the fraud itself is left alone to flourish.

Zoom needs to take responsibility. If there is no intention to enforce Section 8 of your own Acceptable Use Policy, then why is it there?

Please consider creating a dedicated review process for serious reports that include public warnings from regulators, and please tell us how to escalate these issues appropriately. I want to help—but right now, it doesn’t seem like Zoom wants the help.

Regards,
