The trouble will start later: You cannot know when they will freeze your account, nor how much time it will take them to answer your support requests, nor whether you will get any reasonable answer at all.

So to avoid any trouble you will have to withdraw your money as soon as it will arrive, and you should not accept any payments which could pose a problem when being frozen.

And for amounts of about USD 1000 it is usually cheaper to use wire transfer, Western Union, Moneygram, or the like.

Best,
