“A $45,000 donation for an Auckland man’s cancer treatment has finally been released by electronic payment firm PayPal. The company, which processes online transactions, put a hold on the donation after it was picked up by its money-laundering filters. The money was meant to fund private chemotherapy treatment using an expensive new drug for Justin Crockett, who has an aggressive brain tumour. Mrs Crockett rang PayPal without success and said she felt ‘helpless’ and ‘stressed out’. ‘I just think it’s a bit appalling that they have that power to freeze it. It’s not their money. People shouldn’t be put through this stress.’”
