I have a Payza account, it was a service very similar to Skrill or Paypal. They offered a Mastercard and a great service of payment processing. It seems the US government didn't like it, and it has just killed it.

This domain name has been seized by DOJ - Homeland Security Investigations

You must be cautious when you choose a bank, or other financial service... I was lucky, I removed all my funds from my Payza and Skrill accounts after that last one decided to cancel my credit card. So money lost, but others weren't so lucky.
 
It seems that they operate in the US (maybe they allow US customer to do some wire transfert) without any licence.

I don't think the money is loose, but it's put in the light some additional risk when we use such company.
 
Seems that's what they are advising on their twitter account to use. eu domain.

Their twitter account says:

As some of you may be aware of already, Payza is currently dealing with some legal matters in the United States. We cannot give any specific details at this time, but please be aware that this is an accusation and it is NOT evidence of guilt.

btw never heard of them before today but good luck to anyone who used them. Better hope you stayed within U.S law with your activity.
