Sorry guys,i posted this to the previous thread but i wanned to start a new one about this cuz its pretty disturbing!

Guys,a friend of mine also author in VideoHive found this in one of our news sites.And iam on the edge of my nerves when i read all these posts all around the internet and its totally possible all authors from Europe to be a victims of this!

Please,anyone from the staff to contact each other and disscuss or search what is going on and if this delay is because of this.Because people like me and many others here around the marketplaces are full time VH authors and we make our livings from Envato.One missed monthly salary means whole month no incomes for the family,especialy in poor countryes like mine.This is more than a serious thing.All guys from our country still didnt recieved any Swift transfers already 3 days,i already asked them and i already asked few times in my bank.There are no gtransfers.I will really waiting non stop someone from the staff to tell us something about this!

kind regards, Plamen Cvetanov.

so they blocked the swift transfer from australia because of this? What swift has to do with some hackers who stole some credit cards? I don’t understand

also envato has no data about credit cards, is all done through external service payments

“Overseas hackers steal $25 million from Australian credit cards”

As I understand they steal money from credit cards, they are not robbery the banks. Swift transfer is not the same as Credit Card processing.

yes, but if some specific bank got robbed and that bank is the one that envato use to make swift payment, then we have a problem. this is just a theory off course

No you shouldnt.

Maybe the transfer takes a bit longer for internal security purposes, but no bank will go bankrupt because of measely 25 millions and just keep your money.

I got my money on time like always.. I’m living in Holland, i hope things resolve quickly for you guys .. this is pretty nerve wrecking indeed if i was in your position. Lets hope we can get some clarification from envato about the delays for you guys.

All the best,

Learn more about Swift here

Time Frame

Transfers can appear in the recipient’s account as quickly as a few hours or as long as a week.

I have a client from Switzerland who send payments via Swift and I wait 5-7 working days excluding weekends.
