You'd do well to just avoid the U.S. of A. (and friends, I guess). Take those profits and go somewhere safe and manage your newfound business from there. That could be one of the reasons some of the larger markets are still standing.
They catch Russian carding marketplace admins all the time so living in Brazil or Russia is no guarantee you won't end up in jail either. Just takes one mistake and you are on a plane in handcuffs to a federal court. They could bribe local police to pick you up for them too especially if you aren't politically connected in those countries.
Actually, Brazil has very tight control on financial transactions that take place in the country. Especially international transactions are closely monitored. I heard this is the reason why Paypal took so long to get here. In addition, I've read many news which point out close cooperation between Brazilian police and foreign agencies. I think a shady BTC millionaire would have a short run in here, unless he was very insightful of the local system, as well as extremely cautious and creative with the way he handled money.
And let's be honest, if one were to go to jail in the US, Brazil, or Russia, especially as a (formerly) wealthy American, the US is an order of magnitude better than the other two.
Actually most wealthy people live like a king in prison, and if the crime is a financial crime they end up in house arrest after only a short prison term ALWAYS.
if you are russian and living in russia they will not extradite you and as long as you are not targeting russians the police will not care that is why many of these carders dont get arrested and if they do it is usually when they leave russia.
