Despite earning high profits from the sales of its popular pentesting tool, the Flipper Zero manufacturer is, for the time being, not getting any of the money earned through the online payment system PayPal (NASDAQ: PYPL), although things started out fine.
Specifically, after Flipper Devices’ PayPal account started to receive higher profits from the sales of Flipper Zero, the payment processing company put these funds on hold, leading up to around $1.3 million in inaccessible profit for the manufacturer, Daily Dot reported on September 12.
On September 6, the company took to Twitter to express its frustrations:
Notably, Flipper Zero is an open-source multi-tool device that can be used for “hacking digital stuff, such as radio protocols, access control systems, hardware and more” although Alex Kulagin, the chief operating officer at Flipper Devices denies it can be used to commit crimes.
