Trouble on getting funds

[Tatjana H.]

Dear BP Community,

I'm from Germany and and have a big problem on getting my money back after a flipping deal. It was a small crowdfunding and the house was sold two months ago. Some people got their money  but now there is a stop. A realtor from Chicago is managing this deal and she tells us that the banks in Illinois make truoble with transfer because of "sanctions".

Please tell me , is it true what she is telling us?

TIA
