Imagine selling more than 400,000 pesos in Pokémon cards and, three years later, the SAT, which generates a tax problem for you because said transactions are not recorded. Well this is precisely what happened to the German streamer Trymancswhich sold letters of Pokémon to a total amount of 20,000 euros. However, He claims to have forgotten to collect that money and the tax system of that country is investigating him.
This is made known through some comments made in a past streaming, which can be viewed through this is TikTokwhere Trymancs assures that the Treasury is investigating it for possible “money laundering”. Because he did not collect those 20,000 euros, this appears as missing in his account, given that in approximately three years he never claimed said money.
“Now they think I’m laundering money or something. Now I have to warn all my colleagues.”
This happened because, at the time of making the transaction, This was never invoiced and charged by the former owner of said Pokémon cards.which were “sold”, although the original owner never received that money. However, this is something that “went unnoticed”, given that this amount was not so significant for him, due to the numbers he moves with his videos and live broadcasts.
And, for those who don’t know, this movement of selling Pokémon cards had its boom since Logan Paul began to market them at crazy prices, which several streamers from different countries followed the same move, including the aforementioned German content creator, Trymacs. This caused the market for these cards to raise their price “hugely”, reaching a value of more than 10,000 dollars.
At the moment there has been no official statement from the streamer about the actions that the Treasury will take regarding its missing 20,000 euros; However, he assures that he may end up concluding that the transaction ended as a “donation” and is not applicable in tax terms.
As for Pokémon cards, we remember that next October 30th will arrive Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket, the free game for iOS and Android, where you can collect these cards digitally.
