only if the debit card is issued by a real bank. If it is some of the EMI providers around you don't get reported. Anyway, it's possible to trace a debit card if the tax man want to monitor you he can! So better find a way to hide your name and identity!If a person who is resident of country X uses a debit card to withdraw large amounts in country X from his or her offshore account, will country X somehow get this info?
Let us say the person uses bank ATMs of 3 banks to withdraw this money.
These bank ATMs obviously see this information that user "XXX YYY" has withdrawn a certain amount.
Do they process this information somehow and give it to local government instutions?
Or are ATM withdrawals pretty much safe?
What about Revolut and similar apps?only if the debit card is issued by a real bank. If it is some of the EMI providers around you don't get reported. Anyway, it's possible to trace a debit card if the tax man want to monitor you he can! So better find a way to hide your name and identity!
The question is - what information does the bank ATM device process electronically upon withdrawal. What information fields?all information is available to the MC / Visa card association so that means your name will be traceable at any time. If the banks report your card because of large amounts you take out of the ATM's you are pretty much fucked, sorry to say so.
Only way out of this control circus is to get a 100% anonymous card somehow!
usually it's the name and card number. However, I believe since you most often can see your account balance then they may have full access to your account somehow.The question is - what information does the bank ATM device process electronically upon withdrawal. What information fields?
So what alternative do you suggest then?using your name on a credit card linked to an offshore bank in the country whre you live, you're not on the same planet as me or what? You're looking for trouble
using your name on a credit card linked to an offshore bank in the country whre you live, you're not on the same planet as me or what? You're looking for trouble
it's not obvious - at least not for me - how can you support this opinion?It seems obvious
Where did you get an idea that this is about "black money"? That was never indicated.You should never use the same card for black money at all! it will get you in trouble quickly!
if it's for vacation then it's something different. The card will be used X time during one week and never again after so it's easily understandable as someone in vacation. I do believe OP is going to withdrawal a few times every month for a long period. Moreover, this will probably take place in the same neighborhood/city, then the answer I believe is YES : They will know the name of the card holder and can start investigating on those big frequent withdrawals. I would suggest you to travel, cash and bring the cash back where you live or get an anonymous debit card if it exist.it's not obvious - at least not for me - how can you support this opinion?
say a German guy goes on holidays to Italy and makes withdrawals of 10k EUR in total during one week from the local ATM (legitimate reason can be for example gambling or whatever people spend bigger money for) - do you think anybody cares? I don't
You seem to forget that a bank does not only what's in their interest. They are a regulated body. Do you think not accepting cash and reporting client is in their interest ? of course not, but they do it because they have to.Because ATMs belong to a bank. Bank gets commission for every withdrawal. It is not in their interests to report anything unless required by law. Law requires some minimum sum to be reported. It is usually precise.
