FALSE. A viral claim says International Criminal Court (ICC) Judge Luz del Carmen Ibáñez Carranza had her bank accounts, credit cards, and services like Uber and Western Union blocked or frozen without explanation.
FACT. While Judge Carranza was sanctioned by the U.S., there is no statement from her confirming that services like Uber, Western Union, or European accounts were frozen.
The context of the sanctions is often misrepresented. U.S. sanctions on four ICC judges, including Ibáñez Carranza, block their U.S.-based assets and transactions and may affect access to U.S.-linked financial services.
However, there is no credible evidence that everyday apps or European accounts were affected.
Confirmed sanctions do not substantiate the viral claims about loss of personal accounts or access to routine services.
