I did the same last October. It's definitely illegal, only ETECSA kiosks are allowed to sell the cards. But resellers are ubiquitous and it seems that the authorities mostly turn a blind eye.

Like in all other mixed economies, EVERYTHING is illegal, but the authorities mostly turn a blind eye.

EXCEPT when they want to destroy your life or make you suffer for any reason, then they'll look at you specifically.

The U.S. Embassy in Germany agrees with you.

>The United States is said to have a mixed economy because privately owned businesses and government both play important roles.

Make everyone a criminal so you have an excuse to get rid of those you don't like.
