Summary
The U.S. Treasury’s OFAC just added new people to its blacklist, meaning their money and property in the U.S. are frozen. Americans can’t do business with these folks anymore. This move helps keep bad actors out of the U.S. financial system and protects national security.

Assets of Listed Persons Are Blocked
If a person is placed on OFAC's Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons (SDN) List, all property and interests in property subject to U.S. jurisdiction of that person are blocked. That means the listed person's money and property in the United States are frozen and unavailable to them under U.S. law.
U.S. Persons Prohibited From Dealing With Listed Individuals
If you are a U.S. person, you are generally prohibited from engaging in transactions with persons placed on OFAC's SDN List. Americans and U.S.-based businesses cannot do business with those listed individuals or entities under the applicable legal criteria.
