Why won't Paxum take action when two file locker sites are brought to their attention with Paxum accounts ? Read on.

Very well worded. First Paxum accepted payments for Squillion without taking action, now Paxum are taking payments for FileFap.com without taking action.
Here's the rub, unless Paxum has already verified an account then that account can keep taking payments and Paxum can't do a thing about it according to Paxum!
"Unverified accounts can receive funds, however in order for any Paxum account-holder to be able to access any funds in their account, they must first verify their Paxum account."
However Paxum have also continued to allow FileFap.com to keep receiving payments into it's Paxum account, the payment flow still works
http://filefap.com
"If the account were to become verified and receive funds from sources that are in violation of our Terms of Service such as piracy sites, then we would be able to take appropriate action."
So until an account is verified, it can still be used to collect payments allowing access to pirated content.
Paxum, please come up with something substantive, like actually CANCELLING the account and displaying a message similar to "This recipient cannot receive funds" and not allowing the payment flow to actually process.
